Carlos,

The latest MS4W <http://www.maptools.org/ms4w/> has the OCI and SDE 
(as well as MrSID) plugins already built.  OCI is against 10g and SDE 
is against 9.1, IIRC.  You will need the SDKs that match to be able 
to use them.

Otherwise, you can download the buildkit at 
<http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/build_output/mapserver-4.8.3-msvc71-build-kit.zip> 
(Warning 310mb!), go into the GDAL directory and edit nmake.opt to 
match your setup, and then do a normal make for gdal.
