You have to use Delphi XE5 for building the HeidiSQL sources. Older Delphi versions will most likely fail, newer Delphi versions may work or fail.

Once installed, you need to load the SynEdit project from the components folder, build both runtime and designtime package, plus install the designtime package.

Do the same for the VirtualTree component project.

Afterwards, load the HeidiSQL project from the packages folder. You will most likely get some more errors I cannot recall right now, which you should post here.
