Hi,
Sorry, I dislike trying to develop on Windows and gave up trying to build anything on it long long ago. I can gladly make Linux and Mac OS X builds, but not Windows.

That said, building from source (especially well written build processes like this one) is a useful skill to have. You don't have to be a programmer just to build your own. You just have to take the time to set up and install the build tools properly. Many Linux users who are not developers learn how to do this almost immediately. Given the number of trojans and malware out there, building your own from public source is just safer inherently.

That is why I posted the detailed step by step process for doing a build under Mac OS X. Perhaps some kind soul will do the same for Windows ... ie starting from stock Windows install, grabbing the tools you need, and doing the build.
