Thanks for these info!

I checked crasseux; however finally I found EmacsW32 on
http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/EmacsW32.html. It has a conventional Windows
install .exe (http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/DL/EmacsW32/) as well as an
extremly fine description of the whole building process (from "what is
needed exactly and how to download it"...)
(http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/w32-build-emacs.html). (I fell in love with
it for the first sight that is why I advertise it here ;-) It is made by
Lennart Borgman.
