GHDL is a VHDL simulator, using the GCC technology (http://ghdl.free.fr/).

Did somebody tried to build it on cygwin. I had a lot of problems.

From a technical point of view, GHDL is a GCC front-end: it compiles VHDL 
files into objects files, like GCC does for C, C++, Fortran or Ada95 files. 
GHDL does not generate intermediate C files.

GHDL is written in Ada95. I use the GNAT compiler (the GCC Ada compiler) to 
create the binary image. The GHDL source includes AGCC, an Ada binding for 
interfacing with GCC.

The GHDL run-time library is written in Ada95 too. It uses some of the Ada95 
and GNAT packages.

Where can I get the right GNAT and GCC for cygwin.
