Yes, you did: not long ago, on Sept 27, a poster announced it:

Now you can build it yourself, but there are a few errors or omissions
in Alan's code and build instructions, which I haven't had time to
inform him of yet. Basically check to make sure you have the cygwin
inetutils package installed because parts of that are prerequisite for
'script'. Also look for #includes in the top of his C file that are not 
needed. And so on.

I've used Alan's port a little and it seems to work perfectly, once I
had ironed out a couple of these build-time wrinkles. Thanks again,
Alan. 

   HTH.
