Not that I know of...

However, egcs is ported to Win32 and is called egcs-Win32, and works fine for
Win32 code. The MingW32 package provides some basic UN*X APIs to Win32, which
makes porting UN*X code to Win32 a lot easier.

You might get away with installing egcs-win32/mingw32, and use it to build the
Linux gcc or egcs compiler and linker, so that you can generate ELF binaries on
Win32.

I'm not sure if gcc or egcs would build and run under MingW32, though, just an
idea.

Shouldn't make a difference if you compile modules or normal executables. The
difference between them is probably smaller than between windows EXEs and DLLs,
which basically use the same file format.
