One more thought... sort of in jest, but ...

Maybe you could force your Windows programs to compile all the
programs on the Unix system a few times so they can live through the
pain. Or, have them cross compile their code when they add new
include files. I know this is not automatic by any means, but maybe
if they feel the Unix programmer's pain they will be more careful to
type in the correct names.

IMO that's a great idea. A little cross-polination between the 'doze and
'nix teams is a good thing on many levels.
