I don't think you are going to find what you want.
It is true that gcc is available for Win32 but the executable generated by gcc/Win32 will only work on Win32.

ruby-build provides a simple way to compile and install different versions of Ruby on UNIX-like systems.
ruby-build downloads, builds and installs the Ruby version specified in a definition into a prefix directory. Definitions can be chosen

Install Ruby Enterprise Edition 1.8.7 (patch level 2011.03) for rbenv(1):
$ rbenv install ree-1.8.7-2011.03
