Can't tell you yet, I haven't tried to actually do it. So far, I've been 
working on getting an cleaned-up sockets library working on both systems. 
(The original implementation was based on Claw.Sockets, which is too 
Windows-specific to use outright. NCSockets was the "portable" translation 
of that, but it never really was finished, which I'm doing now. Tero has 
already built most of a Debian 64-bit version of NCSockets, so I'm starting 
with that and the Claw.Sockets implementation. When done, Tero will have 
these on his website; and they'll be BSD-licensed, including the sample 
programs.)
