I'm just stating some assumptions here so I might learn:

Wouldn't winbinder let you run on windows natively? If you don't need a 
cross-platform gui or you can use native windows GUI.
http://www.hypervisual.com/winbinder/

http://www.php-compiler.net/ wouldn't help you with win 3.1 or 95.... or 
would it?

GTK is certainly the best cross platform choice for GUIs using php.

What about XUL? (not sure what I am asking here...
