Instructions on building Win32 Vim with different compilers can be found in 
src/INSTALLpc.txt. The instructions for the Microsoft compilers are up-to-date. 
I can't speak for any of the other compilers, as I haven't tried them. I think 
Tony's instructions are current too.

  Yakov wondered "if anybody tried to build win32 
  native gvim with mingw or/and cygwin (the native 
  win32 gui vim)".

  I build gvim and vim with mingw.

Before I switched to the free MS compiler (I follow George Reilly's
instructions) I had built gVim and Vim with native MinGW. I have never
had any problems. IMHO building Vim with MinGW is much easier than
building it with the MS compiler, because it takes some time to install
the MS compiler and everything which is needed for building Vim.
Installing MinGW with its installer is not only much easier, the amount
of downloaded bytes is significantly smaller, too.

Best wishes,
Georg

I've been building Windows packages with Cygwin since the middle of
last year:

The latest beta 7.0e seems to be testing fine, too.
