FWIW...

which may not be much, 

Here's a script I wrote to get, compile and install shapelib, which,
if I'm remembering correctly, works on linux, cygwin and macos:

http://brauhaus.org/xastir/get_shapelib.sh 
http://brauhaus.org/xastir/get_shapelib.sh.gz


On cygwin, it edits the makefile for you to avoid a couple items
noted in the readme's which cause shapelib to not install, out of
the box.
