Y'know I say that, but thinking about it I imagine the buildfarm is tied
well and truly into the GNU build system - running configure, make,
regression tests etc. We'd need to talk Andrew into modifying the code
to handle the different build procedure, and figure out how to run the
regression tests (prolly still need mingw for that - though possibly
SFU/Interix would work).
