I had to forgo the OpenSSL modifications that Satoshi originally suggested. I also switched to Strawberry Perl. Those two changes seemed to fix the OpenSSL build. Everything else was all essentially as documented in v0.4.0, which is the first version to put all the build steps out in detail. The one exception is the bitcoin build itself. There are three minor issues that can be worked around with copy commands. 1. The Makefile points to /wxWidgets/lib/vc_lib/ where it should really point to /wxWidgets/lib/gcc_lib/ 2. The Makefile points to /OpenSSL/include where it should really point to /OpenSSL/outinc 3. The Makefile builds to /obj without first creating the directory That covers v0.1.5, and I think it will probably be smooth sailing from there all the way to v0.4.0. I'll verify that my v0.1.5 toolchain can build v0.1.0 and v0.1.3 as well. For anyone interested, here are the binaries I used to create the build environment. All of them are vintage and would have been accessible to Satoshi with the exception of Win2012 and VirtualBox. I'll try to reproduce my work on a Win2000 which is now quasi-open-domain.
