Dev-C++ is a graphical frontend for the Mingw-compiler
(Minimalist GNU compiler for Windows). Compilation is
possible, but due to C++ incompatibilities linking with the
QT-non-commercial library is not possible.
But I've now provided a zip-file with an precompiled exe for
windows.

Could you tell us how do you compile for Windows ? I want to add some things to Kdiff3 but I need to test they before sending you the code.
The compilation is basically explained in the README file.
Here is a very short version:
Download a Qt-package from qt-project.org/downloads
(Use a MinGW package if you don't use Visual Studio)
With Qt-Creator open the "kdiff3.pro" as project file in subdir "src-QT4".
Compile and run.
Without Qt-Creator use the command line to "qmake kdiff3.pro" and mingw32-make.
For running KDiff3 make sure that the Qt-libraries (Qt*.dll) are in the path or same directory.
The latest version on the git-repository already supports Qt5 if you want that.
