I have a simple question before: Who? :-)

What should I say:
I personal have no windows! and I will not buy it. And I have no idea 
for what is windows good for?
So, I have spend my work for simulavrxx for the public, but that is not 
an offer of a windows port from me.
I will give all needed information for all persons which want do the 
port. But I have no time and money for windows :-)
Actually we have the problem to port on OS X which I could not 
understand. The source code is fixed as I know
but the configuration of the autotools costs lot of time... If I write a 
handcrafted Makefile for each  OS I think all
this problems are allready fixed... Sometimes tools are only good for  
time killing :-)

Resume:
I have not reserved any time to do the windows port. I will support each 
one who want to do this and there is no reason why
the simulator should not work under windows. There is only one critical 
point in which I know: the socket to
gdb and the userInterface. But that is one file (mysocket.cpp). The 
windows must be able to
build the binutils for avr, but that is also needed for gcc so that 
could not be a problem.

Feel free to do it now :-)

Bye
