OK, that's what I began to try yesterday night. At the moment I cant 
only tell you that Python and Python-XML *are* required to build 
correctly, as it has already been reported.
The second problem occurs in app/paginate_psprint.c, which appears to be 
a faulty code. I agree it's not that important, according to the note 
below, appearing in the code.

/* all the signal stuff below doesn't compile on win32, but it isn't 
  * needed anymore because the pipe handling - which never worked on win32
  * anyway - is replace by "native" postscript printing now ...
  */
 __sighandler_t old_action;

But in this piece of code, __sighandler_t is reported by the compiler as 
unknown because not defined before. I'm sure it will be easy to correct 
this, and I'll try again as soon as it's done.
