No need to be sarcastic. I understand your frustation about the unavailability of precompiled native mingw binaries ; however please understand that I'm trying to help you here.

Then be clear and precise. You said it was simple. It is not.

no windows version
It's a shellscript, dude. So yes, you need a bash interpreter.

Um, when I installed mingw, it installed msys. I ran bash to execute the script. That is how I got the errors about missing commands like reapath, nproc, etc. Stuff I guess that doesn't common with the install of msys or mingw.

I don't feel like chasing this rabbit. We should have windows GDC binaries on the main page for download. It's not my job to waste time on things I don't know much about to do this.

I know there is an anti-windows attitude, but if it's so easy then how about someone install mono and build a windows GDC binary using that?

Since you already have mingw environment, you could try precompiled:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/gdcwin/gdc/r229/gdc-trunk-r229-gcc-3.4.5.exe
They tag via DMD version so not sure what GCC base was used.
I do most all D work in Linux, but I do have a windows environment set up. If the link above doesn't give you what you need I can dig into my installation deeper to find the binaries i'm currently using if you need.

Good luck!
