Hi,

the bash and texinfo source you downloaded is not for MinGW but for 
MSYS. MinGW does not provide Unix functions, it only gives you access to 
Microsoft's C runtime functions found in msvcrt.dll.

MSYS's has its own runtime, called msys-1.0.dll. Although its use is 
discouraged.

If you want to continue, look for msysDVLPR-1.0.0-alpha-1.tar.gz, it 
contains headers and libraries for use with the MSYS runtime, take extra 
care when unpacking, the MSYS headers and libraries are incompatible 
with MinGW, make sure you do not replace those from MinGW.

You may also find these articles useful.

Hope that helps.
