 =head1 PORTABILITY NOTES
-Win32 is a loser - code has been written for this platform, pain has been
+Native win32 perls are somewhat supported (AnyEvent::Fork::Early is a nop,
-felt, but in the end, this platform is just too broken - maybe a later
+and ::Template is not going to work), and it cost a lot of blood and sweat
-version can do it.
+to make it so, mostly due to the bloody broken perl that nobody seems to
+care about. The fork emulation is a bad joke - I have yet to see something
+useful that you cna do with it without running into memory corruption
+issues or other braindamage. Hrrrr.
+Cygwin perl is not supported at the moment, as it should implement fd
+passing, but doesn't, and rolling my own is hard, as cygwin doesn't
+support enough functionality to do it.
