Being able to run an emulation layer like msys/cygwin
In my experience (couple of years worth of different Cygwin versions, all relatively new stuff), the Cygwin kernel emulation stuff is extremely unstable itself. So that would probably get you a heck of a lot of false positives in terms of faults occurring.
There are a couple of other Windows-->Unix emulation kits readily available, so shouldn't be hard to find something that both runs reliably and can make ./configure scripts work...
