That might be a great addition but in my specific
case (ref: this thread) the issue was building with
make, gcc etc on a Posix system (Unix-Like) system:
cygwin.

It built just fine.  It ran.  It ran slow enough that
their was obviously something wrong in the setup or
combination of build tools.

It might even be useful to me, but my email all runs
in the (POSIX) Cygwin environment (Exim, SpamAssassin,
CRM114, GreyListD, spfd, DSpam, etc....)

I would encourage you to try it -- let me know if I
can help (like trying to build it here).

The largest issue will likely be the database you
use with it.
