MiKTeX is not build on Web2C. fpTeX is the Win32 Web2C TeX
version. MiKTeX has been developed from scratch. It doesn't use
the kpathsearch library, it doesn't have the web2c flags ... it
does have features lacking in web2c though (like the
--src-specials and --job-name command lines), and it is
"convergin" towards web2c (IIRC, 2.1 got the kpathsea tools as
well, but I'm not sure. Will know when I get it.)
