This documentation explains how to setup a build environment for FileZilla 3 for Windows and how to compile it under Debian using Mingw-w64. It will take less time and is more simple than Compiling FileZilla 3 under Windows.

OS version

Setting up the build environment

GMP

Nettle

GnuTLS

Compile SQLite

NSIS

Compile wxWidgets

Compile libfilezilla

Compile FileZilla

cd ~/src
svn co https://svn.filezilla-project.org/svn/FileZilla3/tags/3.56.0/ fz
cd fz
autoreconf -i
./configure --host=$TARGET_HOST --prefix="$HOME/prefix" --enable-shared --disable-static --with-pugixml=builtin
make
# strip debug symbols
$TARGET_HOST-strip src/interface/.libs/filezilla.exe
$TARGET_HOST-strip src/putty/.libs/fzsftp.exe
$TARGET_HOST-strip src/putty/.libs/fzputtygen.exe
$TARGET_HOST-strip src/fzshellext/64/.libs/libfzshellext-0.dll
$TARGET_HOST-strip src/fzshellext/32/.libs/libfzshellext-0.dll
$TARGET_HOST-strip data/dlls/*.dll
cd data
wine "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/NSIS/makensis.exe" install.nsi

Voila, there's now FileZilla_3_setup.exe in the current directory.
