IIRC, some libraries can simply not be built on Windows (e.g. Python
or Freetype). So, the only way would be to use Cygwin (for a similar
reason, the OpenJDK can not yet be built on Windows without Cygwin).

That being said, VirtualBox is also a good way to have a ready-to-use
Linux box on your machine :-)
