There is useful tool Gow that runs GNU programs on Windows, quote:
Gow - The lightweight alternative to Cygwin
There is a case to be made here that the project is GPL violating;
it's shipping compiled GNU programs without any clue as to how
the user can re-build that from scratch.
I see only compiled binaries in the Gow repo; I don't see any build
scripts or instructions how rebuild it from scratch: how the
binaries were obtained.
It seems to be shipping MSYS DLL's, so it appears to be a MinGW
derivative.
