What doesn't work with MinGW? All you have to do is extract everything into c:\mingw and then make sure c:\mingw\bin is in your PATH. However, I just tried building it on my laptop (which I just discovered I had compiled my own GCC 4.0.2 on), and you also need dbghelp.h, which doesn't appear to be in any convenient package for MinGW, so I used the copy from the Platform SDK.

No, you could have 5.0, 6.0, 2002, 2003, and 2005 all installed if you wanted, since they each get installed to their own directory. I've had 6.0 and 2003 installed side-by-side for years just so that I can build the Win32 ACC with 6.0 and use the MSVCRT.DLL that comes with Windows.
I just installed 2005 on my desktop, so I will probably be updating the project files for that in a few days.
