Yes, build-mingw32.sh works, but the resulting build is incomplete.
For example, it lacks libgluezilla and a mozilla library to glue to,
so the browsing component does not work. This is in the official
Windows builds of Mono.

I don't know what else is missing.

I use that for every mono release since about 2.2 as I need a little customization, changing the heap setting, before they get the new garbage collector code scheduled for 2.8(?) ready. I only rebuild the runtime - not the class libraries, so I stop the build in the middle.
