No, you´ll still need GNU make. (Besides the maintenance effort.).
Automake -> VS project converters do exist, but are not sophisticated
enough. Lot´s of things are handled with posix shell commands.

Actually, I don´t really expect contributions from Windows developers that
are reluctant to install a few gnu tools. Some unix/posix knowledge is
needed to get everything set up.
