Dear experts,

What is the best way to compile a current and up-to-date
gschem for Windows? I'm using a binary package from 2013
now, which works fine, but has small bugs (main window
positioned too near the top of the desktop, console window
that can't be turned off, opening text with EE does not scroll
the view, etc.)

When I try it to compile gschem, a bug in the makefile declares
my Python is too old (it is actually newer than the make test
expects). There are many warnings by gcc that are caused by
"improvements" in this compiler over the last years. Finally it
apparently fails to link to some gtk library and I am really lost
what to do.
