Yes it's bigger in size, but offers a lot more features :)
My "5x" comment was comparing the resulting sizes for ghdl.exe ( not
the script size ):
compile.ps1 results: ghdl.exe 10,285,541
compile.bat results: ghdl.exe 2,411,534
The size difference seems to be due to 'compile.bat' running strip on
the exe file, whereas 'compile.ps1' does not.
After running strip, the sizes match, but the binaries differ- I
haven't investigated why yet, might be something simple like link order
or compile flags.
I.e., as a test of the new build scripts, I am looking to see if the
binaries match: I would expect that identical source trees, using the
same GNAT compiler version and commands, should produce matching
binaries (except for time stamps and the like).

Hello,
- after installing, local script execution needs to be enabled from an
admin-level PowerShell:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
Oh sorry. Yes, that's a security feature. By default only signed
scripts from trusted environments are allowed. This cmdlet set the
policy to a lower level.
- Local scripts can be executed.
- Remote scripts still need to be signed.
- compile.ps1 ghdl.exe size is 5x that of compile.bat
Yes it's bigger in size, but offers a lot more features :)
- compile.ps1 not
running strip on exe
There is a strip run on ghdl.exe, isn't it?

Is someone against removing old .bat scripts ?
I'd prefer not to have two ways to build on windows
I have no objection to switching to PowerShell for the Windows build.
I would suggest waiting a month or so before removing the .bat files,
in the event of any issues with the new scripts.
My initial PowerShell build notes:
- my copy of Windows 7 Pro needed the PowerShell 4.0 update mentioned
by Patrick.
- after installing, local script execution needs to be enabled from an
admin-level PowerShell:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
- compile.ps1 ghdl.exe size is 5x that of compile.bat ( compile.ps1 not
running strip on exe )
