Just a thought, but coLinux (www.colinux.org) has a low-level Windows
driver to give the Linux kernel access to the  CPU.  Perhaps this could
be modified to simply allow Qemu to execute user-space code (a la kqemu)
on Windows?

I'm afraid I'm not nearly enough of an uber-hacker to even assess the
viability...

Cheers,
D
