I take it that the problem is that libcurl is a C library with a
Unix-like build system, and that is the problem that needs Cygwin,
right?
I'm not a Windows expert, but having C code is perfectly fine, I
guess. My 'hipmunk' library includes a whole C library. When I tried

One needs a compiler and libraries on the one hand, and a bunch of
command-line tools on the other hand. On Windows, MinGW provides
