I don't know how things are usually done with MinGW, but the libvorbis 
package assumes it will find libogg installed like a normal library. You 
can pass '--with-ogg=<prefix>' if you've installed libogg in some custom 
location, or something like '--with-ogg-libraries=../libogg-version/src/ 
--with-ogg-includes=../liboggg-version/include/' to point to your 
compiled directory.
