[Stephan M. <ste...@we...>]

The DDK is not needed any more in order to compile libusb-win32.
Mingw/Msys is all you need.

Try this:

- get a more recent version of libusb-win32, version 0.1.10.0 is
pretty outdated
- download and install the latest win32-api package from www.mingw.org
- open an Msys shell and run 'make' (without any arguments)
- that's it
