I cannot help you with the Forte compiler, but I have made project files 
for Visual Studio .Net 2003 for libsigc+++-1.9.11 and the test files. I 
have made it so that a .lib file is generated and there is a project 
file for every test. The directory structure is as follows:

libsigc++ root
    |- docs
    |- examples
    |- etc...
    |- visualstudio
        |- sigc
        |    |- sigc.vcproj
        |- tests
        |    |- test_accumulated
        |    |    |- test_accumulated.vcproj
        |    |- etc...
        |- libsigc.sln

This is how I would do it; if someone wants it in a different way, I can 
change it.

Furthermore, I've tried to build it ofcourse. Most of the tests failed. 
You can find a buildlog on 
http://www.stack.be/~roel/sigc2-vs2003-buildlog.txt. Basically, the 
library went ok, and 5 of the tests (test_accumulated, 
test_deduce_result_type, test_disconnect, test_mem_fun and test_ptr_fun) 
were ok too.
You can have a look at the buildlog and maybe someone can deduce what 
the problem is with the rest; I have not enough knowledge of libsigc to 
do myself, unfortunately.
For the brave soul who wants to try it, I've put a zip file with the 
project files on http://www.stack.be/~roel/visualstudio.zip. Copy it to 
your libsigc++ root dir, and unzip there - that will create the 
directory structure as described above.
Hope this helps.
