I'd like to draw and print a circle that's split in 10 slices (like a clock, but with 10 hours instead of 12 - 10 slices of 36 degrees each).
Can you recommend how to do this easily using (windows) software (preferably something that's not very esoteric)?

Using Excel 2010
Enter in equal values in Column A. The number of rows entered will determine how many partitions your circle will have.
From the Insert tab, create a 2D pie chart with the cells selected (A1 through A10):
You will now have a circle cut into 10 slices, where you can then modify the color arrangements to meet your needs:
Copy and Paste the data to an Excel Worksheet or write the data manually. Select all the data as shown. Select Insert->2-D Pie and the Pie will be shown. Choose the style that you like from Chart Design->Chart Style menu by selecting previously inserted 2-D Pie. Chart statistics data used to demonstrate this example is taken from:
You can also customize the degrees for each pie to your wish.
So you can have 10, 36 degrees pie slices also. Here's the picture:
