Bob just changed building on Windows to default to dwarf2 things.
This means that you should probably do the following if you hadn't already:
1. download the latest libpackage from inkscape.modevia.com http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32libs/devlibs-2.12-071101.7z
2. NOTE THE NEW c:\devlibs DEFAULT PATH FOR THE DEV LIBS!!!
3. see mingwenv.bat and build.xml to make sure the paths are correct
4. btool clean, and start using build.xml again (default)
Hope you have no probs!

It's a format for representing debugging information (symbol offsets, etc.) in/alongside object files. I think we were building object files with the debug information in Stabs format on Windows before.
(The other common options on Windows would be the inbuilt COFF facilities, which aren't actually very useful, or PDB format, which I believe is what the Microsoft toolchain uses, but as far as I know the GNU toolchain doesn't support PDB.)
