Check out the page here: <http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=59452>

The module name in question is "sc2"

You should use CVS to get it, naturally.  :)  <http://cvshome.org>

The first link details how to use CVS in the context you require.

It's not a matter of "best", it's a matter of "what works".  I tried to get UQM building with MinGW on win32 for a while and gave up; your only hope seems to be Visual C++ 6.0 or higher on win32.  Under Linux, the ever-ubiquitous GCC gets the job done quite nicely.
