You have to pass the option --distfiles C:/FileToIncludeInDistribution 
to configure.bat. This is mainly for libXpm.dll.

configure.bat will fail with an error if it can't find any files in the 
specified directory.

Then just run `make dist' (or `mingw32-make dist') and the binary 
distributions will be built, zipped and placed in the nt/ directory.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Christoph
