cygwin-oriented scripts that grab deps, cmake, etc for win build?

Hi All, sorry for the lazyness, but does anyone have even a partial
set of scripts to drive the windows cmake build including obtaining
common prereqs?

I believe I have seen 1 or two batch oriented ones that I'd just as
well avoid 'cept for hints about how to do it in bash/cygwin.

Thanks!

Looks promising, thanks!  I don't think the limitations would affect
my use case. I will give it a spin.

Something like https://github.com/appsuite/oss-httpd-build ?. The
downside is that there is no corresponding mak/Makefile.gather-win,
but my focus is on adding mak/Makefile.test-win first.

The Ubuntu on Windows makes the unix/bash work out fine, (with
a splash of apr-1.6.3\build\lineends.pl from src/ added for editability
and behavior) and the two missing gather steps are falling back
from a project's candidate tarball to their last release tarball, and
validating gpg sigs. These later two things are hard enough to
make me swap out the approach of Makefile/bash for python
(not sure I have the patience to attack PowerShell this moment.)
