Hi Brian,

You may want to take a look at the libusb-win32 project:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb-win32/

It contains a USB device driver built with MinGW. I suggest looking at 
their makefiles for the compilation switches they used, and at the 
source code for guidance in writing a Windows device driver.

As the libusb-win32 driver code is GPL'd, however, you must be prepared 
to license your own code under the same terms, if you ever distribute 
your derived work.

Regards,
Cesar
