I mostly do the actual coding under Linux, but have network access to a very powerful box running Windows 7 (I am not allowed to change the OS) which I would like to compile on.I see suggestions about cygwin. It is probably too slow for short life processes such as gcc.
But if the op only wants to have the same environment for both linux and windows, I think Cygwin should be the best solution, especially if his Win machine is fast (as he remarks).
I would create a Linux VM on Windows and use Linux tool inside it. If the box is powerful, you have HW-assisted virtualization, so just pick a good VM manager (don't know which is better at the moment, Vmware, VirtualBox, ...) and create one VM, or more than one if you have a lot of cores and memory.
