You don't list your problems.  I don't know and will not download 
Intel2Gas.  It sounds like it might be something that converts 
assembler syntax from one form to another.  Since GAS now understands 
Intel assembler syntax then I don't know what benefit it would be to 
you but if you really need to build it, and want our help then you'll 
need to be more specific.

A small program like intel2gas which just converts assembly language from 
one format to another should be quite simple to port to Windows so I suggest 
you try it. I briefly tried building it and "configure" fails due to a lack 
of glob.h but I would argue that this is a bug in the configure script 
because the code already seems to handle the lack of glob with #ifdef 
USE_GLOB. I would suggest modifying the configure script except that there 
is no configure.in in the tarball I downloaded, so instead you could either:

1. Find a port of glob for Windows; or
2. Modify "configure" manually; or
3. Create a Makefile and i2gconf.h manually from Makefile.in and 
i2gconf.h.in and use that to build it.
