Are the *-bin.zip files needed? Are not the *-lib files sufficient?

Installation quirks
I had to do:
configure CPPFLAGS=-I/C/GNUstep/msys/1.0/include LDFLAGS=-I/C/GNUstep/msys/1.0/lib
to get the gui build going.
Also, ffcall wouldn't compile, so it was necessary to copy one from an older GNUstep installation on windows. I will make a zip of this and put in on the GNUstep ftp site so that others don't run into the same issue.

TODO
- outdated, pull in http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/User/GNUstep/README.MinGW
OR
- delete or convince everyone of putting these kind of things on the wiki and not in some external file.
