How would Java allow this any more than C.  There are no GUIs used in the node itself, 
so porting a C node from *nix to Windows shouldn't take much work beyond recompiling, 
provided the developers used good coding practices.

I stand by my comments that having cross platform binaries is largly irrelevent to 
Free 
Software projects.
