I started writing instructions for building mingw-w64 binaries with
msys2, which is what we also use for the R project:
https://github.com/bagder/everything-curl/pull/163

These are pretty minimal instructions (msys2 is a pretty advanced
build system), but it would be interesting to hear from Windows users
if you were able to get started using these instructions, or if/where
you got stuck.

Using VCPKG [1] is not mentioned. 'libcurl' is already
there with several combinations of features (but SChannel
only it seems). A 'vcpkg.exe list curl' gives:

  curl:x64-windows                        7.79.1         A library for 
transferring data with URLs
  curl:x86-windows                        7.79.1         A library for 
transferring data with URLs
  curl[non-http]:x64-windows                             Enables protocols 
beyond HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2
  curl[non-http]:x86-windows                             Enables protocols 
beyond HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2
  curl[schannel]:x64-windows                             SSL support (Secure 
Channel)
  curl[schannel]:x86-windows                             SSL support (Secure 
Channel)
  curl[ssl]:x64-windows                                  Default SSL backend
  curl[ssl]:x86-windows                                  Default SSL backend
  curl[sspi]:x64-windows                                 SSPI support
  curl[sspi]:x86-windows                                 SSPI support

Building 'libcurl.dll' for 'x64' is easy as
  vcpkg.exe install curl:x64-windows

(using cmake and ninja). But building 'curl.exe' is
missing from VCPKG.
