Can't say - i don't do Windows. It surprises me as well. It seems that the
server impl has diverged into a windows-specific one since i last looked at
those bits. Maybe those bits are missing an open-a-repo check/step. Looking
at it now, i apparently understand too little of it to see if there's a
difference in this regard. Ah, here we go:

main.c has a big #if block in which find_server_repository() is done in the
non-Windows block, and (apparently) not in the Windows block. i don't dare
touch the Windows code, though, as i can't test it.
