[PyQt] pyqtdeploy: Unable to compile openssl in Windows when attempting to build sysroot

[Neil Jansen]

Apologies if this has been posted before.  I'm usually very self-sufficient
with these sort of things, but I'm positively stuck at this point, and
Google hasn't turned up much.

I'm trying to get the demo pyqtdeploy project working, but I'm stuck on the
step where it's trying to compile openssl as a part of building sysroot.
The instructions / tutorials are VERY vague and leave a lot of
interpretation up to the reader.  I'm not even 100% sure I'm using the
right versions as there is no documentation on which dependency version(s)
have been confirmed to work together.  I've posted a few snippets of the
build window below.  I've struggled to get even this far, but now that it's
to the point of failing with syntax errors in assembly language, I'm
bailing out and need help at this point.

Can anyone tell me if this is an easy fix?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
