I'm really not trying to be rude with this post and apologize if
someone takes it that way.
Unless you have a specific reason to compile GIMP from source (a bug
issue, compatibility, etc.) it's best to just wait for the next
version to come out or wait for Jernej to post binaries. (BTW, Jernej
thanks for all your time and effort!) The only reason I'm even saying
this is that compiling GIMP from source on Windows is quite difficult
due to the number of external libs and dependencies needed, however if
you still want/need to compile it check out the developer boards and
their mailing lists. good luck!
