Hi,

there is a thing for Windows called System Services for Unix (SFU).  It
is a modern POSIX implementation on top of the NT kernel but very
different to the old we-need-to-be-compliant-to-gov-ITBs Posix
subsystem.  Did anyone ever tried to build a GnuPG on it?

AFAICS this would use MSC but on a native Windows supported POSIX
platform.  Cygwin is based on on the Win32 API (which is the common API
used on top the NT kernel) and thus has some problems with complete
integration into the system.
