It's very hard. I have added some things to Automake that should help. The Automake 'compile' script implements the -o, -L, -l and -wl, options for cl, and can be triggered with either AM_PROG_CC_C_O or explicitly with CC="/path/to/compile cl". You'll need to do the latter until the new version of the 'compile' script is released from git-Automake... With that help from 'compile', the CLI of cl is actually not tripping up on most of the common stuff from c99 posix utility. The actual code is another matter entirely, of course.
