Seems like the whole world is thinking like that. :-) I do have linux boxes at home, but I also have windows. Thanks for all the help. I will let you know the outcome. Already built GMP and MPFR. Now running 'make' on MPC. This one should take less time than MPFR. GMP took a good 3 hours just to run make. YIKES. Later. I've been a Cygwin user for a long time, and I like it, but another possibility here for you is WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). It's a pretty easy install, and because it is done by Microsoft and can reliably use internal interfaces, there are ways in which it is more Linux-like -- for many packages you can just do apt-get install and they work. In my experience the performance is comparable to Cygwin, maybe a touch faster (but no where near as fast for heavy forking as running inside a Virtual Box Ubuntu virtual machine, for example). It has its limitations, for sure, but I have found it helpful for some things.
