A few things.
1) the GNU C Compiler doesn't provide the tcdrain() function, but libc does 
this.
2) if you're looking for UNIX like behavior on windows system (like GCC) I 
suggest you check out www.cygwin.com. I'm sure they can answer your 
question much better than the FreeBSD community.
3) why not use FreeBSD instead of windows? (not trying to be zealous, just 
curious, and you did post to a FreeBSD mailing list)

Hope that helps you out,
