I have no idea if it is possible to build a new DLL fully

The current recipe asks the user at some point to start a new shell

spent some time on trying to upgrade the msys branch to a full built
environment without success. I don't plan to spend more time on
this.
AFAIR all that is done by "msysdvlpr" is set "MSYSTEM=MSYS". But that
changes a lot in MSys' behavior.
But it also opens a new shell, so maybe setting the environment
variable while having a shell open in not sufficient?
Maybe you did not restart MSys after switching to the "msys" branch?
AFAIR the C++ compiler was missing.
http://www.mingw.org/MinGWiki/index.php/Build%20MSYS also describes
that wincon.h from msysDVLPR-1.0.0-alpha-1.tar.gz is needed.
