Right now no effort is made to build this crate on Windows.

One would need to evaluate the requirements (building/downloading/installing libmagic) and possibilities for continous integration.

AppVeyor provides a free plan for OSS projects.
It does not seem to support Rust directly, so one'd have to install Rust/Cargo manually.

It might be possible to use Cygwin to install gcc, pkg-config, autotools etc. to build libmagic. I do not know which of Cygwin, MinGW (or MSYS) works best with Rust. Having a dependency on Cygwin DLLs should not matter much for CI.
