Those instructions are for unixy kind of systems.
I think on windows you'll have to add at least -mno-cygwin to gcc.

The only header from io-layer that shuld be installed is io-layer.h:
check you have installed it somewhere.
That header uses 
#if defined(__WIN32__)
to include the windows headers on windows, instead of wapi.h etc.
So it may be that the compiler doesn't define __WIN32__, seems strange
though. Hope this helps.
