	For windows - shipping a pre-canned set of compiled compatibility
libraries doesn't look too disgusting to me; at least - it seems a lot
less disgusting than using MSVC++ and cygwin :-)

	tar xf ure-bincompat-win32-tgz

	is not in itself such a horrific outcome from a cross-compiled solution
(assuming the build of that is well documented, should you happen to
have lots of time and a proprietary system + compiler to do it). Clearly
someone needs to build them once.

	HTH,

		Michael.
