Maybe the real question is where exactly do we stand with Windows right now...
We haven't had (complimentary) binary builds for Windows in quite awhile and, afaict, there are really no people focusing on Windows compatibility anymore. For me, I wouldn't want to stunt httpd development for "every other platform we care about" simply because it breaks Windows. But it's not just my decision, 'natch.
