Another project you might want to look into is the GNU-Win32 project here
at Cygnus:

     http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/

We have written a dll that provides many of the important Unix system
calls which allows easy ports of many UNIX programs, including many of the
GNU tools, to Win32.  The project ftp site contains pre-compiled binaries
of many of the GNU utilities as well as the corresponding source code.

While there are still bugs :-), we have a bash shell under Win NT in which
one can configure and build gcc, gdb, gas, binutils, etc...  The tools
work under both Win 95 and NT but Win 95 has a harder time building Unix
programs straight because of the required .exe extension among other minor
issues.  They can also be used for native Win32 development.
