Ya I am trying MinGW now.

But since it is like building on the windows platform, we need to get round with
concepts which differ on the posix and the windows system. Currently I am
dealing with the Signals, one such problem. In in my linux based code we have used
the sigaction() concept which is not supported in MinGW.

Now I am bit worried to estimate the time for the complete activity as I will
have to make modifications in the code to make porting successful.

How about minGW? Did you try that? I have similiar
problem and I will try to see if there is any
difference.
