Categorically, on all platforms, never use any filenames or directory names 
with spaces. Operating system programmers who enabled this feature should be 
shot, and may be.

Once you have installed GCC, MSys, and MSys developer tools (in that order), 
unpack FLTK, go into the fltk-whatever directory and

./configure --enable-threads
make
make install

No need to compile Python. Just make sure that the python dir and the script 
dir when the SCons scons script ends up are in your executable path. Or you 
can just run the scons script directly. I do:

c:/utah/opt/python23/python c:/utah/opt/python23/Scripts/scons useDouble=1 
noDebug=0 gcc3opt=0 buildPDClass=1 buildLoris=1 buildStkOpcodes=1
