Re: Debian GNU/Interix (Windows 2003 Server R2)?

[Sam Liddicott]

To my knowledge, Debian GNU/Cygwin and LINE (that syscall dynamic 
debugger that let native 386 binaries run native) both failed because 
most unix software made unforgivable presumptions about file system 
semantics; mainly that you could delete files that were in-use, and 
rename open files ontop of other open files, etc etc.

Too much stuff is going to fail in interesting ways unless file system 
semantics are fixed up somewhat.
