Martin,
I did attempt to do this with considerable help from the folk here, and I
think I even got as far as set of executables once, but as I'm not a C/C++
person, the effort involved was considerable, and I still had many
"warning" messages (and I want to see no error or warning messages when I
compile my own software).
That was with VS2005, and I don't think that even runs under the Windows-7
I'll have on my next PC. Could try the XP for WIndows-7, I suppose.
There is a free Borland C/C++ compiler for Windows, but I don't know what
effort might be required to port to that version, or whether it will run
under Windows-7.

I realise that my efforts don't qualify as "building ntp under Windows",
but I did try!
Cheers,
David
