Hi Gerrit,
Proj4 http://proj.maptools.org/ should build OTB
GDAL http://gdal.maptools.org
< configure to use internal tiff and geotiff libs
should build OTB >
GEOS http://geos.refractions.net should build OTB
using following
% CC=c++ CXX=c++ ./configure; make
PostGRES < Cygwin binary and source packages >
PostGIS < needs the configured but not compiled PostGres source package
after configure install PostGIS into PostGRES contrib directory
configure and make >
link against libgdal instead of libtiff and libgeotiff for geotiff support
