I have a 10 month old glfw3.dll

Since glfw didnt change much (that was already at release), this is
probably enough for you. Simply pass the glfw3.lib to the compiler and
make sure glfw3.dll is reachable in runtime.

But you can also build your own using cygwin (that's how I made it) and
use implib for format conversion.
