It's just a project file. Shouldn't it be possible with not too much
effort to convert it to a Makefile?
Yup. Looks not too difficult to translate into a Makefile. And it's not
more than one actual source file. Looks like two headers from somewhere
else in the source tree are referenced. And there's a library definition
file. Some build options might have to be taken from the .props files
referenced by the vcxproj file.
That build env implies it is written in MS C89++, may not compile cleanly under
Mingw64 gcc or under Linux cross, so may require patches, including for ARM64,
which may have to be maintained locally if not accepted upstream.
It also includes external 3rd party sources under various licences; see
