Have you ever looked at cygwin? I haven't tried building 3.0 with it yet,
but the distro is about as close to RH as you are going to get (for some
strange reason) . I find it very easy to migrate Liunx apps, including Motif
and Gtk++ GUI stuff to Windows. otoh, it is nowhere near as DOS friendly as
djgpp, if that is your main interest.
