As Phil already said: If you use the official binary from Trolltech that
comes with MinGW bundled all you need to do is run configure.py through
python. That binary installs a shortcut into your programs menu (under
Qt or Trolltech, not sure) which will open a command box for you,
properly setup to build Qt programs (that includes qmake and mingw stuff
in PATH).

So really there are no extra informations needed, provided you use the
officially supported mingw-qt-gpl binary package. For anything else
you're own your own.
