"dependence" is being used in the technical Debian sense of a package
requiring another to be installed.  So, Cygwin and MinGW don't matter.

As to VC++, I've never tried it.  We don't use gcc for much when we're
using our native code generator, so it shouldn't be too hard to use
another C compiler in that case.  But I don't know why we would want
to.
