+
+Here's a step by step from a clean install to successfully setup MinGW and build
+libusb-1.0 and stlink for MS Windows. Hopefully this helps someone.
+
+1. Install MinGW and MSYS to C:\MinGW with the graphical installer from
+http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-setup.exe/download
+and add these packages:
+mingw32-base
+mingw-developer-toolkit
+
+2. Add C:\MinGW\bin to your path.
+
+3. Create the C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\etc\fstab file to mount C:\MinGW as /mingw as per
+http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MSYS:
+
+#Win32_Path     Mount_Point
+c:/mingw        /mingw
+
+4. Download these three glib, pkg-config, pkg-config-dev archives and extract
+contents to C:\MinGW
+http://win32builder.gnome.org/packages/3.6/glib_2.34.3-1_win32.zip
+http://win32builder.gnome.org/packages/3.6/pkg-config_0.28-1_win32.zip
+http://win32builder.gnome.org/packages/3.6/pkg-config-dev_0.28-1_win32.zip
+
+5. Download latest libusb-1.0 source from git://git.libusb.org/libusb.git and
+build (prefix as per http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MSYS)
+
+./autogen.sh
+./configure --prefix=/mingw
+make
+make install
+
+6. Repeat for stlink source from https://github.com/texane/stlink
+
+./autogen.sh
+./configure --prefix=/mingw
+make
+make install
+
+7. Enjoy the fruits of the stlink developers.
