The following reply is mostly about ices2. I don't know the ices0.x code well, 
but I imagine this will largely apply to it as well.

The code is currently somewhat unix-centric. It's largely written as 
reasonably portable code, with some exceptions, so the porting task should be 
simple and fairly easy.

The main 'problem' (or not: it depends on how you want to use it) is the audio 
input code - if you want to do live audio from a soundcard, then that part 
would have to be written from scratch for windows - the low-level audio APIs 
aren't at all portable. If you DON'T want live audio, that part of ices2 can 
be easily/safely compiled out.
