I should say that this is just a cygwin build, and it's now rather old,
but it certainly works - tested by students. It's also available on my
own web page (www.dur.ac.uk/peter.baxendale/stuff, please ignore the
other ancient stuff there) but without the helpful text that Kai-Martin
provides. I'll be building it again this summer for the new academic
year.

I'm also going to go for a native windows build, but last time I tried
that it wasn't too successful with gschem or pcb (gerbv worked fine). If
it goes ok, of course I'll make it available, but I have to say I'm no
Windows expert. Unfortunately I don't have as much time as I would like
to spend on this, and to be honest, if I could persuade our people to
dual boot Linux I wouldn't bother at all.
