Good to know that cross-compilation is supported at least.

LLVM is supported on Windows. [1]

Talking to Windows APIs requires UTF-16, but UTF-8 can (and should!) be used in all languages on all platforms internally. It's trivial to add a UTF-8-to-16 conversion step when calling a Windows API (and the other direction on receiving such strings from Windows).
