Maybe a build server for windows builds will help? If there exists a 
spare server (e.g. at redhat) I can setup automated windows builds there 
(or write detailed instructions how to do it). It will take some time 
though, and I'm not sure about Microsoft licensing issues (for windows 
2000, windows 2003x64 and MSVS2003).

Until that I can build it for each new change myself.
