I don't understand what you mean: to build the static library type "make 
lib"; to build the shared library type "make shared".

Which external packages do you really need? For the basic library the 
only dependencies are blas and lapack (you can safely turn off 
everything else). And I think you should be able to use the blas.lib and 
lapack.lib from the package Dave pointed to with Dev-cpp.
