It certainly seems to be true that, no matter how daft you or I might
think it, management would prefer to use Windows to develop on.

I wonder how difficult it is to build GNAT on Windows? I'm pretty sure
it has to be under MinGW. I did manage after many hours to get PolyORB
to build under MinGW, but it crashed dismally when used .. in contrast
to the Linux build, which worked out of the box. Perhaps it would be
worth a try .. on the other hand, I would like a little bit of a life!
