I use jhbuild for this. You write a simple bit of xml saying what
packages your project depends on and it will download, patch,
configure, compile and install them for you automatically. I use it on
linux to cross-compile win32 applications, but I imagine it would work
on Windows as well, though very slowly.

I have the files for my project, plus a README, here:

There's an nsis thing that will automatically build a setup.exe as well.
