There seem to be two types of GNU-win32 users. Those who are trying
to make a Windows system more Unixy, and those who are trying to make
Unix software work under Windows. For the latter, the closer the
file system stays to the windows standard the better, so that its
easier to distribute the completed port to regular windows users.
