We're interested in using Hubbub and LibCSS in our windows program but
we can't get them to compile under Visual Studio, which we use for our
windows builds.
Are there any efforts underway to port these libraries so they compile
under VS, or, to release DLLs?
Thanks!

None that I'm aware of. What prevents them building?

The build systems are implemented in GNU Make and are not trivial.
You'll either want to build using a GNU-like toolchain (we routinely
cross-compile to Windows from Linux using mingw), or reimplement the
build process inside Visual Studio.
I would recommend the former.

Thanks to both you and Michael. We'll give the mingw cross-compile
route a whirl.

I had no problems to compile libwcapplet, libparserutils and libcss with vs 2008 express.
You will need to fix few c99 headers that does not come with vs, but you can find them
freely on the internet. It was quite some time ago. If I remember well, you have to have
perl installed to run a script that will generate you some include file before you do
compile. Also you have to take a peak into includes and makefiles to see what include
flags has to be defined. It was pretty straightforward process.
If I ever fine my old projects i can post them somewhere; but it won't be possible to
me before next week.
