I don't know how to to do build of recent Axiom.silver on Windows.
There are many options: 

   * Bill maintains a branch of Axiom with changes only for windows.
     As far as I know it isn't up to date

   * Axiom.build-improvements builds on Windows, all platforms
     supported by Axiom.silver, and many more.

   * Axiom.wh-sandbox, based on Axiom.build-improvements, support
     similar number of achitectures and have more fixes.


I'm trying to get initial bits of Axiom.build-improvements to
Axiom.silver.  Those bits will be incremental -- I'm afraid.

Different people have different opinions on the matter.  

I have been doing native builds of Axiom on Windows and I'm happy with
it.  Last time I tried, Axiom build on Cygwin won't succeed because of
GCL issues.
