This group looks dead, but I'll try anyway.

I've installed mwlib, and all the other requirements.

I just don't know what to set $wgCollectionMWServeURL to. If I just
set it to my local IP, I get a 404 error...

I'm running Ubuntu through VMWare.

I've also tried running it on Windows, but when I get to the Create
mingw_setup.py step, it fails, giving me "dlltool exited with status 1"

You mean, because no one wrote a post like, say, 2.5 hours before your
post? :)

It's a meant to be an URL to your render server which is highly
dependant on how you've set it up. If you're running it as stand-alone
HTTP server (which is the default value for --protocol) on port 8899
(which is the default value for --port), you should be able to talk to
it by using

$wgCollectionMWServeURL = 'http://yourserver:8899/';
