It builds in a MinGW-w64 Win32 or Win64 environment with the following command line:

Thanks, but why is the -DHAVE_POSIX_DECLS=0 argument needed? I was hoping that HAVE_POSIX_DECLS could have the default value under MS-Windows.

I still get the warnings about the dllimport attribute on 'tzname'.

Sorry, I forgot to avoid redefinition of tzname. Fixed in the attached patch, which I've installed on GitHub. This still assumes you're compiling without setting HAVE_POSIX_DECLS, though, so possibly we need further changes.
