Are there any?

Forget about MSVC. It does not support partial template specialization, which is required by libsigc++. I don't have any experience with Borland C++, so I can't really help you with this compiler. The preferred tools are the mingw gcc compiler combined with either msys or the cygwin distribution for the standard Unix tools like bash, perl, m4, autoconf, automake, .... Everything is explained in the README.win32 file that you can find in the gtkmm source distribution. I strongly recommend you to use a gtkmm CVS checkout instead of the latest release because some important win32 patches were submitted recently.

If you really want to use MSVC, you're basically on your own (although I think a bunch of other people tried and/or failed to compile/ libsigc++ and gtkmm with MSVC 6 and .Net : look in recent posts)
