Just to put in my 2cents on the build options: there is a tool that supports all of those environments (gmake, cygwin, mingw, nmake, visual studio, eclipse, ....), and that's CMake. It's widely used, and has a pretty good track record. It can also support automated test environments and packaging.
It has one major disadvantage: the current build system would need to be converted from an autoconf-based to a new CMake-based system, together with all of the knowledge contained within it. Further, there is less knowledge of CMake than autoconf within the OpenVPN community. Disclaimer: I'm not trying to start a holy war here, I know every system has its own advantages and drawbacks. I just want to get the option on the table :). I've had some positive experience with CMake, through PolarSSL and some projects at work. I'll try to make it to the meeting this evening for the discussion.
