The Makefile for nmake is

APACHE_ROOT=C:\Apache2.2
RUBY_ROOT=C:\Ruby
SRCS = \
      apache_cookie.c \
      apache_multipart_buffer.c \
      apache_request.c \
      apachelib.c \
      array_header.c \
      bucket.c \
      connection.c \
      cookie.c \
      error.c \
      mod_ruby.c \
      multival.c \

      request.c \
      ruby_config.c \
      ruby_shared_stub.c \

OBJS = $(SRCS:.c=.obj)
CFLAGS=/I"$(APACHE_ROOT)\include" /I"$(RUBY_ROOT)\lib\ruby\1.8\i386-mswin32_100" /DWIN32 /nologo

LIBS= libapr-1.lib libaprutil-1.lib libhttpd.lib msvcr-ruby18.lib

.SUFFIXES: .c .obj

all : mod_ruby.so

.c.obj:
        cl /c $(CFLAGS) /Fo$@ $<

mod_ruby.so : $(OBJS)
        link /nologo /DLL /OUT:$@ /EXPORT:ruby_module $(OBJS) $(LDFLAGS) $(LIBS)

clean :
        -@del /Q *.obj *.so

The Makefile for MinGW is

APACHE_ROOT=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2
RUBY_ROOT=C:\Ruby
SRCS = \
    apache_cookie.c \
    apache_multipart_buffer.c \
    apache_request.c \
    apachelib.c \
    array_header.c \
    bucket.c \
    connection.c \
    cookie.c \
    error.c \
    mod_ruby.c \
    multival.c \
    paramtable.c \
    request.c \
    ruby_config.c \
    ruby_shared_stub.c \
    server.c \
    table.c \
    upload.c \
    uri.c

OBJS = $(SRCS:.c=.o)
CFLAGS=-I"$(APACHE_ROOT)\include" -I"$(RUBY_ROOT)\lib\ruby\1.8\i386-mswin32" -DWIN32
LDFLAGS=-L"$(APACHE_ROOT)\lib" -L"$(RUBY_ROOT)\lib"
LIBS= -llibapr-1 -llibaprutil-1 -llibhttpd -lmsvcrt-ruby18

.SUFFIXES: .c .o

all : mod_ruby.so

.c.o:
    gcc -c $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $<

mod_ruby.so : $(OBJS)
    gcc -shared -o $@ $(OBJS) $(LDFLAGS) $(LIBS)

clean :
    -@rm -f *.o *.so

the MinGW version almost works. Still the mode_t error.
