To build APR is not that difficult. On the Windows platform you either

Please be advised;
the cygwin build is NOT a win32 platform build - it uses the cygwin emulation
layer, with all it's beauty and blemishes :)
hmm.. didn't Borland release their C compiler for free a while ago?
any idea on if Borland would read MSVC's makefile.win and work ?

We would -certainly- entertain the mingw32 patches to build the native win32
binaries based on mingw. Admittedly, that may be more difficult with the
native
APIs we use internally, but I suspect it's doable.
I'll be happy to review any mingw build script here, just follow the usual
guidelines [diff -u3, prefer cvs diff -u3 against the current tree.]
