All of the three branches compile.

The first one (portPocketPc_EVC4) is rather old, it was a project 
created with Embedded Visual c++ 4, and when I spoke to the author 
(Cesc) a few months ago, he confirmed that although the project was at a 
compile state, it did not run.

The second (port_PPC_VS2005) is based on a Visual Studio 2005 Windows 
port of minisip, and although it compiles, it is supposed to run on a 
console, but it lacks the necessary code to convert ascii to unicode 
strings (Windows CE uses unicode universally), so we can see some output).

The third branch (ppcgui) was the one I have been working on for the 
last months. I was supposed to create a GUI for pocket pc but eventually 
found out that the previous port faced some problems that had to be 
fixed. An extensive documentation can be found at ppcgui/Documentation, 
but you can also track down some old reports at the list:

Note that there is now a library that supports domain-name resolving, 
called "udns", which was ported to pocket pc as well.
