Help With A Compiling Exercise

Hey folks. As an exercise, i'm trying to make a build of the ALAC codec on a 64bit Windows computer. I'm using GCC via MinGW, and actually have no idea where to start.

The source to ALAC (Apple's Lossless Encoder) is here -

http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/alac/trunk/


I'm trying to build the codec (as stated). How would i accomplish this? Any help is greatly appreciated.
