I am mainly doing Windows software development, but I don't see any
benefits from spending lots of time to adopt C language specific things
in the source code so that it compiles with the MS compiler (be it either
gcc specific language features or missing language features in the MS
compiler).

So I use Cygwin which also emulates at least those Unix specific features
used in OpenBSC/OsmocomBB/Airprobe. And the C standard libraries are not
that different that you won't understand what is going on.

Best regards,
  Dieter
