Visual Studio, GNU Makefiles and Cross Compiling.

I think RCINCS is for windows resources, so I doubt it's required here unless Visual Studio complains about not having it.

Interesting idea, I wish I had more to give back, but I hate makefiles with a passion.

I will be very interested in see what comes of it though.  If there is one thing MS is good at, it's IDEs.

Oops, forgot:

OK, so -noixemul prevents linking to the ixemul library... so I assume this is only useful to projects that are porting Posix software? Or is it broader than that? Also, that Libnix reference in LIBS... is that a reference to ixemul? Or an alternate? What's it's purpose?

Here is a pretty good source for what you're doing.  This page is particularly relevant:  http://www.tbs-software.com/guide/index.php?guide=gg.doc%2Fgcc-amigaos.guide&node=-noixemul

Libnix is more Amiga like, ixemul is very posix oriented.

Unless you're porting, you'd want to use libnix via -noixemul.
