It seems that on the mingw-users list someone else asked my same question,
but with no better luck:

I tried, but I've only found packages (mostly derived from Voxware's
GNUWINCE) based on a support DLL's that supplies a POSIX layer, like the
one at http://mamaich.kasone.com/fr_pocket.htm . The main problem for my
application is that such DLL (newlib) is GPL'd, automatically GPL'ing any
program linked to it.

Thanks anyway.
