	Hello, I am not a professional, but I have a project which is totally 
developed on Kdevelop on linux, and which is maintained on windows. I can 
give you my experience : avoid VC++ !! The compiler doesn't understand a lot 
of things (for example in the templates). But it is quite simple to use 
Borland tools. We develop on linux with kdevelop, and we have very simple 
scripts  which create firstable a .pro (with qmake) and after a Makefile for 
borland (qmake again), and finally compile the project on windows (with 
borland's make). All works very fine, no #ifdefs at all, no manual actions to 
do.
	I things it is a good solution, because it minimise the work to maintain the 
two versions. If you find a better solution, please tell me ;-).

Sylvain
