I have to admit that I have not tested r15742 on Windows yet.

That is weird.  In r15727 I added a test in inst_hh to make sure we can
really compile and link a test file similar to gnc-help-utils.c.  So if
you use install.sh, it should fail.  Also, I do not have
c:/soft/hh/lib/htmlhelp.lib, because it is moved to htmlhelp.lib.bak.
You should rather have libhtmlhelp.a.
