Thomas,
I will certainly get back to you for the details when I manage to build Pd under Windows.
As mentioned earlier, I am still practicing my development skills and I probably will need some more preparation. Mean while, if not too trouble some, can you please give me a brief background on why sysex function are not available under windows-vanilla and what was necessary to over come it?

Did not quite catch up on weather you meant that the PortMidi libraries should work as is, or needs a simple patch applied.
portmidi is fine as it is
In any case, yes, I do have the interest.. and time, perhaps I can manage. Is this literally a patch to be applied to the source?
the change for vanilla pd (or pd-extended) is not just a patch. This potential patch can be deduced from the modifications that have been made in devel_0_39, though.
I do mainly work on pd-extended, and building either distros, I have not been very successful under windows.
I am certainly sure I will learn something from it.
It's easiest to start with Miller's pd which should be possible to build under Windows. A patch for Miller's pd should also work for pd-extended.
