Various parts of GRASS use Unix functions which don't exist in the
native Win32 API. That's why the Windows version uses Cygwin.
If you want a native Windows version, you'll need to do most of the
work in porting it. Exactly how much work is involved depends upon how
much of GRASS you need to port; some parts will be easier than others.
If you're interested, we'll be happy to provide information and
advice; the developer's list (grass5 at grass.itc.it) would be the best
place to ask.
