For what its worth, I tend to use UnixUtils extensively on my system:

http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/

They are all pretty small, are good enough to be used as replacements
for the GNU versions, and are all compiled natively with Windows CL.

I'm not sure if these will do the kind of things you are after, but I
have used sed/make etc. from this package without any problems.

Thanks
