How much of the pain building extensions on Windows comes from our
build system and how much of it comes from the fact that it's Windows?
 My guess would have been that the latter is by far the bigger issue,
but maybe I'm wrong.

There is really nothing keeping us from removing or reducing the use
of recursive make without switching to cmake.  And it's probably not
even that much work.
