I can't offer much specific advice as we develop flex on platforms
where more-or-less posix compliant tools are available as a part of
the operating system. I've seen a couple of flavors of unix-on-windows
mentioned on this list, but I don't want to be seen as recommending
them as I don't know enough to recommend them or not.

configure wants a bourne-style shell to run. again, see the remarks
above about tools.
