I compiled Geany in Cygwin once.
According to the modification time of
http://uvena.de/tmp/cygwin_xfce.png, this was in January 2007 :). I
don't have the build environment anymore nor any idea how I did this.
And also no idea whether Geany would still compile in Cygwin as the
code changed a lot since early 2007. But it's probably worth a try if
you want :).

Nope, sorry.

There is a bug report about porting VTE to Windows:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=369310

Unfortunately, there wasn't much process lately.
