I'm trying to avoid being associated with development for the platform =
:)

=46rankly, I just always forget about it. The patches to my windows
repository are mostly just hacks to either make it pass test suite or
workaround another, the platforms specific, stupidity. Not sure anyone
is actually interested in them (because, I repeat, they mostly hurt
everyone else, while making the platforms port "a little working").
