i had more success crosscompiling from linux for windows, because both
the gcc toolchains were lacking a few pieces at the time.

using mingw or cygwin, it should look something like the following:

--
# change PREFIX as needed
PREFIX=/usr/local
# update url and version numbers as needed
wget http://fftw.org/fftw-3.1.2.tar.gz
wget http://mega-nerd.com/libsamplerate/libsamplerate-0.1.2.tar.gz
wget http://mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/libsndfile-1.0.11.tar.gz 
wget http://aubio.piem.org/aubio-0.3.2.tar.gz

for i in fftw-3.1.2 libsamplerate-0.1.2 libsndfile-1.0.11 aubio-0.3.2
do
        tar zxf $i.tar.gz
        cd $i
        ./configure --prefix=$PREFIX
        make
        sudo make install
        cd ..
done
--

but there are a few traps on the way.

if you do not have m_pd.h in your $PREFIX/include, you will want to 
add CFLAGS=-I/path/to/your/pd/include at the end of the configure line
for aubio.

it would be really nice if someone could improve the build system on windows
platforms. and the same goes for macosx of course.

good! which one did you find/use ?

putting all the dlls in the 'extra' folder of your pd installation
should be enough.
