Now or then? <wink>.  "Then" it was the simple matter of no gcc available
for Windows.  Now, it is a combination of no one driving it, and the simple
fact that msvc will almost certainly generate better code and work with
almost every library on Windows worth talking to.  However, until the "no
one driving it" part of solved, the latter, including the impact of mingw,
wont be able to be measured.

Mark.
