you can pipe the output of your make command into a file, like
"make > make.log"

it would be interesting which undefined references you get.
most likely they refer to symbols defined by pd, which you can fix by 
linking against pd.lib

and you will need to change your makefile to produce a .dll and not a 
.pd_linux (but that is more or less cosmetic compared to your current 
problems)

btw, in theory you can cross-compile objects on linux for windows via 
mingw (there are debian packages), which might work (or not): iemmatrix 
and zexy both have an option for this (look at their 
README.txt/INSTALL.txt for further explanations); probably you could rip 
their build-system to build the markov objects (iemmatrix's build-system 
should be fairly general: your main task would be replacing "iemmatrix" 
by a name of your choice)
