Re: [C++] A portable build system?
You can use cygwin to do gcc compiles for windows. It comes with automake (don't know what version) and can be integrated with Eclipse CDT.

Re: [C++] A portable build system?
You can make native windows dll's and executables. The last time I was involved in this kind of build we actually used ant on windows and linux in top of gcc (in cygwin for windows) to drive the build for the large number of different systems we had to support (there were some strange HPC type ones). IMHO though the result was rather too complicated. I don't know automake but if you have it working well on linux it would be good to see how well it supports a windows build before doing anything more exotic.
