You need the druntime header files in your import path, which is specified in sc.ini.  Then, assuming druntime.lib is in \druntime\lib, build phobos via:

make -fwin32.mak DRUNTIME=\druntime

By default the phobos makefile assumes a directory structure matching the DMD distro, which probably isn't what you have if you're building from a repository.
