i've been able to build fluidsynth on windows with the mingw/msys 
combination. it's so easy that i can't really remember if there was any 
glitch...ah, iirc i was missing some directsound related header (which 
isn't bundled by mingw, you'll have to get it somewhere else:)

just follow the same ./configure && make and you're done ;)
