To cross compile for Windows, the following needs to be done:

+OpenSSL is needed to link the windows builds to, as mingw doesn't include it. This needs to be cross compiled with mingw by running the following from an OpenSSL source directory:
./Configure mingw --cross-compile-prefix=i686-w64-mingw32-
make
-3) Set the OPENSSLDIR variable in config.mk to match where you compiled openssl

-4: Set up tcl Starkit prerequisites:
- Download tclkit from http://tclkits.rkeene.org/fossil/wiki/Downloads
- Download sdx from https://chiselapp.com/user/aspect/repository/sdx/index
- Create a shell script called sdx and put it in your path, containing something like this:
- #!/bin/sh
- d="$HOME/src/getxbook"
- "$d/tclkit-8.6.3-rhel5-x86_64" "$d/sdx-20110317.kit" "$@"
- Download a windows tclkit including tk from http://tclkits.rkeene.org/fossil/wiki/Downloads and ensure the adjust W32TCLKIT to the appropriate filename in config.mk if needed
+Tclkit and SDX are used to create a self contained executable with the GUI and all needed tools. Unfortunately these days working builds are difficult to find. Two different versions of Tclkit are required: a native one, to get the SDX packer to work, and a Windows version including Tk, to package into the final executable.
+ Both Tclkits can be downloaded from: http://tclkits.rkeene.org/fossil/wiki/Downloads
+ sdx can be downloaded from: https://chiselapp.com/user/aspect/repository/sdx/index
