I am not really an experience Kylix-er or Delphi-er, but supposedly, you 
replace the #include (speking in C) which look like TForms with QForms, 
or even better make ifdef's for windows and linux. Then you compile.

I saw a demo where a database app was developed in Delphi 5, copied over 
to a linux box, add ifdefs, s/T/Q/ and press the play button.

Note also that there is a download/free version of Kylix with which you 
may develop any GPL'ed app. Since I assume a phpgw client could be 
GPL'ed, then we should all be able to work on it, if people are so 
inclined. One person who has a copy of Delphi can compile for windows.
