There is no binary package available, but if you have cygwin you can
install it from source.  Your mileage may vary; people have reported
problems getting it to work (although the one time I tried it worked
for me, several years ago).

I assume that the cygwin fork() implementation is slow, so if you
recycle your procs frequently, there may be a performance impact
there.  But if it works at all, performance should be acceptable for
development purposes.
