Cannot build on Windows

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Configure build environment for Pidgin under Windows
2. Copy xmpp-ignore-groups.c to devroot/pidgin-2.10.6/libpurple/plugins
3. Enter that dir and build it:  make -f Makefile.mingw xmpp-ignore-groups.dll

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected DLL as output, get this error instead:
undefined reference to `jabber_iq_signal_unregister'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
R3, Windows 7.

Here's the full output:

You need to include the jabber headers form libpurple/protocols/jabber/

No. When I include "protocols/jabber/iq.h", the error just turns into something 
else:

Ok, here's the magical command line that worked for me, using the GCC from 
MinGW (4.7.2) instead of the one for building Pidgin (4.4.0). Also, I didn't 
need to change source code as above.

devroot/pidgin-2.10.6/libpurple/plugins $ gcc xmpp-ignore-groups.c -O2 -Wall  
-L.. -L../protocols/jabber -L ../../../win32-dev/gtk_2_0-2.14/bin -ljabber 
-lpurple -lglib-2.0-0 -shared -I.. 
-I../../../win32-dev/gtk_2_0-2.14/include/glib-2.0 -I 
../../../win32-dev/gtk_2_0-2.14/lib/glib-2.0/include -I 
../../../win32-dev/libxml2-2.9.0/include/libxml2 -o xmpp-ignore-groups.dll

Could you please test if the make file also works ?

You need a unix-like environment (running MinGW with all the environment and 
paths loaded, not only from the plain Windows command line, because the make 
filerelies on pkg-config to find the correct paths)

I had tried it before, but I couldn't find a MinGW-get package for pkg-config.
