As a rule of thumb, avoid CVS if possible. The main repository is the one
based on git. The one based on CVS is synced more or less automatically but
the process tends to fail quite often

No idea. I just built my copy of ECL in a Windows Server 2008 without
problems, using both Visual Studio Express 2010 and Microsoft's SDK, which
also comes with a compiler. Both have nmake and none of them caused
problems.

I am not an XML savvy and I am just using the tool that comes with OS X.
There might be other xsl processors around, though.
But... why don't you install cygwin? I install it even if I don't use it to
build ECL so often, just because of the tools: rsync, ssh, xmlto...
