Windows build procedure

[Robert Fewell]

OK,
I copied the gschema files from msys2\mingw32\share\glib-2.0\schemas to a
temp directory along with unstable\inst\share\glib-2.0\schemas files and
then ran glib-compile-schemas on this directory to create a new
gschemas.compiled file and then copied all the files in the directory to
'c:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\share\glib-2.0\schemas' which has solved
the Glib error and the file chooser now works.

The icon error can be fixed by copying the
unstable\inst\share\icons\hicolor folder to either 'c:\Program Files
(86)\gnucash\share\gnucash\icons\hicolor' or c:\Program Files
(86)\gnucash\share\icons\hicolor', probably the later is the correct
location.

I can not see what else is wrong with the aqbanking dll.

Regards,
Bob
