The MinGW port is being actively discussed and worked on.  However it
is work in progress and at the moment we are not supplying binaries -
you will have to build it yourself.  This is not trivial - I suggest
you find someone who knows how to compile software to help you.

Here is the project SIG:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/MinGW

This contains a working build chain for libvirt which builds the
libvirt-0.dll and virsh.exe (make sure you read the README file
first):
