One more suggestion, a-la virtual machines: I know you mentioned
having to work in Cygwin, but if the plan is to deploy on CentOS, then
that's just trying to push a camel through a cat-door... I'll leave
the explanation of that to your imagination...

Anyhow, I have recently bought an account at a VM hosting service
called Linode (http://www.linode.com) for dealing with this very sort
of problem, and I have to say, I am *extremely* impressed with it's
performance, ease of use, and flexibility.

If you can at all swing it, do the work on a Linode - you can buy a VM
and have a CentOS system up and running *literally* within 5 minutes
(that was my experience) and you can tear it down and rebuild with a
simple web interface.

SHAMELESS PLUG: If you do go that route, please go ahead and use my
referral key - it nets me a $20 credit, and you get one to use
yourself!
