..or MinGW. I tried to compile ocaml with MinGW installed, and then got this error message (copied from console):
C:\ocaml>make -f Makefile.nt world
cd byterun ; make -f Makefile.nt all
gcc -mno-cygwin -DIN_OCAMLRUN -DOCAML_STDLIB_DIR='"C:/ocamlmgw/lib"' -O -Wall -Wno-unused -D_DLL -c interp.c
interp.c(215): jumptbl.h: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [interp.d.o] Error 1
make: *** [coldstart] Error 2

So what did I miss now? It seems jumptbl.h isn't included in the distribution... Or am I mistaken again?

Actually, I was asking for a friend. He thinks it's called PCRE.
