Making a Euphoria dll is really pretty simple.  Check out e2c.htm in the 
Euphoria docs.  From the command line:

> ecw -wat -dll myfile.ew
(translates the Euphoria code to C)

> emake
(a batch file that builds the DLL for you)

I typically use Open Watcom 1.0, but it's something like a 50MB 
download.  You could also use Borland, which is only about 8MB.
