I add some informations about building with MinGW32 in the file "README.win32".
With default configuration, the build process is OK.
The tests fail in NCI and System parts (see details in attached file
test.err) :

t/pmc/sys.t 1 256 1 1 100.00% 1
With --gc=malloc (or --gc=malloc-trace), an error occurs during compiling
of src/malloc.c :
src/malloc.c:637: conflicting types for `sbrk'
src/malloc.c:270: previous declaration of `sbrk'
After a small patch, what's build.

Strange. Can you trace through these failing tests with a debugger?
