There are prebuilt native toolchains so you can have GCC, GDB etc. as

I am running mingw32-make without MSYS2.  Isn't that GNU make?



Ah yes, apologies for the oversight. mingw32-make is the CMD-based GNU
make variant, which understands batch syntax rather than shell syntax. I
used to believe that very few people would use mingw32-make rather than
Cygwin/MSYS2 make which accepts Unix Makefiles.

I'd agree that it's fairly rare, but e.g. CMake can generate makefiles for this case, and the same goes for Qt's qmake.
