Hi Ben

I guess it is easier if Michel has the ability to create a working version,
maybe  as a proof of concept. (My work for the cygwin  setup showed me that
there is a big differences for a program on a Linux platform or on a Windows
platform.) When work arounds are used, you can see what and how many issues
need a solution.  It is still possible that he finds some unsolvable
problem. Fortunately it looks as if all issues are solvable.  And in
potention the MinGW installation is better as the Cygwin installation. Let
us see what happens.

Have fun
