I've recently played around with MXE ( http://mxe.cc/ ) which is another cross compilation environment that aims to provide an easy way to handle dependencys for Windows.

To build a static pinentry-qt4 with it you can just set it up as documented on their homepage. Drop the attached pinentry.mk in mxe/src/ and do "make pinentry"

Worked like a charm for me on a debian wheezy system.

Regards,
Andre
