I don't understand your question.  If you need Xlib, then you build
Xlib.  Why do you need a clone?

Mac OS is Unix-based, so it's easy to build X clients.  For Windows, you
can certainly do this in a Cygwin or MinGW environment.  However, you
should make sure that you are really asking the question you meant to
ask.  Running an X client on Windows means that the application runs on
Windows, but its window appears on an X-based computer.  Is that what
you wanted?
