3 things:

#1 Gem is C++, as well as it's plugins. because of name mangling, you
cannot mix C++ binaries compiled with one compiler with binaries
compiled with another compiler.
e.g. if Gem was compiled with M$VC (which it was if you are using the
binary provided by me), you will not be able to use plugins compiled
with MinGW

#2 the "installers" (both the zip-file and the installer executable)
provided by me should include imageQT, imageJPEG, imageTIFF, imageSGI
(and the notorious imageMAGICK); the installer.exe has the imageMAGICK
plugin chosen, and the other plugins de-selected (i think), but you can
simply select the plugins you want. the zip-file contains all plugins
(including the faulty imageMAGICK)

#3 finally, the problem you reported here is a bit different, a it seems
it fails to link the plugin alltogether (regardless of whether you will
be able to use it with the Gem.dll, as explained in #1); in order to fix
this (which might be interesting on the road to make Gem compilable on
MinGW alltogether), i would need a bit more information (e.g. configure
flags, configure output, build log)
if you are interested, you could try to join the gem-dev [1] mailinglist
