I've managed to compile most of the port under cygwin.

cp Make.FreeBSD-386 Make.CYGWIN_NT-5.0-386

in libthread/label.h, change:
 #if defined (__i386__) && (defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__linux__))
to:
 #if defined (__i386__) && (defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__linux__) || \
 defined(__CYGWIN__))

cp asm-Linux-386.s asm-CYGWIN_NT-5.0-386.s

in lib9:
cp ffork-Darwin.c ffork-CYGWIN_NT-5.0.c
cp rendez-Darwin.c rendez-CYGWIN_NT-5.0.c
(cygwin provides pthreads, so I'm using that interface)

Compiling sam fails, though, with:
disk.o(.text+0x27c): In function `diskwrite':
/yadda yadda/plan9/src/cmd/sam/disk.c:108: undefined reference to `_pwrite'
disk.o(.text+0x31e): In function `diskread':
/yadda yadda/plan9/src/cmd/sam/disk.c:120: undefined reference to `_pread'

Haven't been able to test anything yet.

When a windows port is started, I'll try libdraw under mingw. Some of the
rest compiles, but I can't remember which parts.

Seconded.
