Yes ... but not necessarily correct everywhere ... just in the code I tested 
... mostly I was running Gorm as a test application.

Also, I was testing on Windows-XP ...

When I was trawling the net for info on windows transparency, I came across 
stuff saying that older (but quite recent) versions of windows didn't support 
it, so I suppose that it's possible that Windows 2000 doesn't ... in which case 
I guess we need to work out autoconf stuff to determine the windows version and 
enable/disable it accordingly.
