This is where cygwin might help. It provides a POSIX compatibility layer. 
It is almost GNU/Linux without the Linux kernel. The installation takes 
time and downloads lots of stuff. Do not use their Chicken Scheme package; 
it is very old. Select the development tool packages (not the MinGW 
flavour) and other things you need. You may have trouble if you need a 
library which is not available as a cygwin package. Check the package 
list. Look here.

Good luck.
