gid_t is defined in kdewin32's sys/types.h which is included in unistd.h 
which is included in kdefakes.h:115 - so I assume you either missed 
installing kdewin32 or has another unistd.h around. Check your includes.

For kdegames you'll need at least kdelibs. And currently we don't know 
if it's working on another system than the one you compiled kdelibs on 
it (because of some hardcoded paths).
Also kolf is dsabled because of libksirtet - it's not compilable on 
win32 (at least not some weeks ago) due to posix functions not available 
on win32.
