Nice, thank you Christian.

I've been working on the Windows install wiki page [1] on and off for a
few weeks now. There are a couple of things that I've had problems with:

1) Getting sound: Which packages & compile flags (and other settings) do
you use to get sdl-mixer working? I only made cursory attempts, but
couldn't seem to get it working.

2) How have you gotten around the compile problem with the "intl"
directory? [2] Older libiconv/gettext packages, or something else?

I'd be interested in any help you could provide. I'd love to integrate
that information in the wiki page. Feel free to reply off-list, if you
think it's more appropriate.
