It said "Wine headers", so one would assume that it's in the Wine package,
and indeed it is:
andi at note:/usr/local/src/wine$ find . -name "windef.h"
./include/windef.h
andi at note:/usr/local/src/wine$ 

Your --with-wine sounds broken, somehow (are you specifying your Wine
.wine/ *configuration* directory here, by chance??).

I guess it should rather point to the Wine source directory or the Wine
source include directory instead.
I.e. something like --with-wine=/usr/local/src/wine or --with-wine=/usr/local/src/wine/include
Also, /princessangry/ is an absolute path (in the root dir), which is
most likely not what you wanted (just as a hint, but it doesn't matter
any more anyway, since you should specify the Wine source directory instead).

Should hopefully work then...

Good luck with the port!
