www.cygnus.com -- You will need Gnu Win 32.. thats it. One big package, 15 megs. It includes almost all of the useful *nix tools (gdb, patch, grep, sed, gcc, make, bla bla bla.... god, it has whoami, for what reason is beyond me, one that doesn't work, at that)

Pretty much. Some things are still different, as they are different OSes. It covers everything in the way of headers, though.

You will have to fool with conf.h as there is no autoconf, and make.exe doesn't seem to work (for me).
