I think AT&T research's (David Korn mainly I think) UWIN might
be suitable, you can find the project at:


http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/


(UWIN is a Windows port of UNIX user programs, not all are included,
but most except for cc which is a wrapper for MSVC)


For commercial use it's a commercial product, it's "free" (not in
the GNU sense) for others.




And there's always Microsoft's adopted Interix product at:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/interix/
(I don't know where it's sourced from code wise)

[Uwin looks like it uses the freeware versions of lex and yacc, which
means flex. Dunno about Microsoft. -John]
