It's not possible to port MacVim to windows, as MacVim relies heavily  
on OS X's APIs.

What do you mean by porting MacVim to windows? What does MacVim do  
that gvim for windows doesn't do? If I recall correctly, there's some  
gvim option that makes it behave more like a windows app (i.e. ctrl-c/ 
v/x work etc – which overrides the usual vim keybindings for these  
keys (especially annoying for ctrl-v)). Your best bet is probably to  
make a list of things you want gvim on windows to do and then aks on  
vim_users about how to make gvim do that. It probably can do some of  
the things with some options. You could write patches for the rest.
