Well... what was wrong with first approach? The approach itself. Most likely due to some knowledge issues, I made a fundamental mistake by trying to build it in VS. That was wrong.

All dependencies I have (Glib, DBus, GDA, XML, whatever) are built under MinGW so clear should be to build Vinland under MinGW too, but apparently it was clear enough for me.

Last night, just as arrived back home after Midgard Gathering, I took my wife's laptop and after some 3 hours of completinh MinGW installations along with Vinland dependencies I got first running libmidgard2 library with midgard-schema.exe and midgard-query.exe fully operational. No unresolved symbols, no broken references, no crashes at all. However I faced some issues with database creation, I blame the laptop running on Vista (yuk!) so today I started porting it again on my box under XP.

Be sure, that as soon as I get it done, I will post binaries and developers instructions :)
