I'm not sure that changes anything; the various things that have been
associated with Services For UNIX are based on products that MS has
licensed or acquired and it all runs under the NT kernel using an
"environment subsystem":

space utilities that come with it, the environment subsystem (the
closest bit to a kernel) doesn't appear to be open source.
