Yes you can, I made a readme on how to use GCC for Win95 to compile
it... I sent it to Jeremy but haven't heard a word since!
Here is the doc... anyways...

Compiling CircleMud 3 using Minimalist GCC Windows32
----------------------------------------------------
It works and it's free!
----------------------------------------------------
Chris Warren <chris@calligrafix.co.uk> - December 96

Contents
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.....................Introduction
2.....................Obtaining and Installing the Compiler
3.....................Changes needed to the code.
4.....................The new Makefile
5.....................The new conf.h
Introduction
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
So you want to compile CircleMud to run under Windows 95 or Windows NT and
you don't want or can't afford Microsoft's compiler. This is the situation
is was in. Luckily I had heard of the Cygnus GNU project to port all GNU
software over to the Win32 platform, and also Minimalist GCC Win32 (MINGW32)
which is a configuration that allows you to compile to native standalone
Win32 code with out the dependancy of cygwin.dll. This readme will show you
how to alter the code to allow this comfiguration to compile it successfully.
If you get stuck, find a mistake in this document or generally just want to
chat then contact me at chris@calligrafix.co.uk
Oh, and one last thing. Two of the utilities will not compile. They are
autowiz (as MINGW32 does not support signals correctly at the moment) and sign
which needs a bit if alteration to get sockets to work correctly.
Obtaining and Installing the Compiler
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luckily there is a good web page available which shows clearly how to install
MINGW32 and how to use it... It is written by the author of MINGW32 and is
available at the following URL:
http://www.fu.is.saga-u.ac.jp/~colin/mingw32.html
One file that the above does not mention is Make, which is in archive five.
It is not necessary but useful. If you want it extract it to your \usr\bin
directory.
Changes to the code
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Only three files need altered. Just add the lines that have a + next to
them. Line numbers are only a guide, but should be almost correct!
comm.c
======
Line 17-22:
#ifdef CIRCLE_WINDOWS /* Includes for Win32 */
+ #ifndef CIRCLE_MINGW32 /* but not if compiling using GNU */
#include <direct.h>
#include <mmsystem.h>
+ #endif
#else /* Includes for UNIX */
comm.h
======
Line 48-52:
#if defined(__COMM_C__) && defined(__GNUC__)
+ #ifndef CIRCLE_MINGW32
#ifndef accept
int accept();
#endif
Line 122-126:
#ifndef write
int write();
#endif
+ #endif /* CIRCLE_MINGW32 */
#endif /* __COMM_C__ */
sysdep.h
========
Line 72-77: (This can go almost anywhere in the file!)
+ #ifdef CIRCLE_MINGW32
+ # define byte int /* Really silly that byte is undefined */
+ # include <windows.h>
+ # include <windows32/defines.h>
+ # include <windows32/messages.h>
+ #endif
Line 163-168:
#ifdef CIRCLE_WINDOWS /* Definitions for Win32 */
+ #ifndef CIRCLE_MINGW32 /* but not for GNU */
#define FD_SETSIZE 1024
#include <winsock.h>
+ #endif
typedef SOCKET socket_t;
Line 268-280:
#ifndef fwrite
size_t fwrite();
#endif
+ #ifndef CIRCLE_MINGW32 /* Must be a bug in the compiler: will try to Redefine these ignoring the ifndef */
#ifndef getpid
pid_t getpid();
#endif
#ifndef gettimeofday
int gettimeofday();
#endif
+ #endif
Changes to the Makefile
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to some small flaws configure will not produce a makefile. So copy the
text between the markers into a file called Makefile in your source directory.
!!!NOTE!!! Make sure TABS are preserved as ASCII char 9 not a bunch of spaces!
