There is a prebuilt binary distribution of Emacs for Windows-NT and
friends. It is in <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/latest>. To be
recommended is the "fullbin" file. The instructions are one directory
higher, in <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/README>. You will also
need Windows versions of tar and gzip, but I think there are pointers for
these programs in the README.
As for Bison, I wouldn't know.
