I used to build netCDF-3 with MinGW whenever a new version came out. There was an issue with Windows-style path names in the .Plo files (or something--I forget the details) but this was fixable with an editor. I never tried with netCDF-4, because I couldn't build HDF5. However maybe there is a suitable Windows-native HDF5 library somewhere. Or maybe you don't need support for the netCDF-4 format. As to whether the new DAP code works under MinGW, I have no idea. In other words, building netCDF-4 under MinGW may be worth a try, but expect a few obstacles on the way.
