Yes I know reimp, but AFAIR, it doesn't work well with C++ symbols, which the
ECW SDK contains. Perhaps this has improved, but I wouldn't be too optimistic.

Anyway the freely downloadable Visual Studio Express might be a better starting
point. GDAL can be built with it.

And/or start from Tamas Szekeres daily builds and customize them (there are
source packages) to your needs.
