I know this is the advice I was hearing for many years when I was
missing some software on the Linux, but here I'm giving it in the best
possible spirit: have you considered to simply run Gnumeric under
virtualbox or or some other virtual machine?

These days it's very easy/quickly to pick some Linux distro and then
have Gnumeric running and sharing data with the hosting Windows OS.
