Well, that was an idea, but at Cauldron you pointed out that I could
test the event loop under Wine.  Also, this week I finally got a gdb
build working on Windows, so I may just try that instead.  My thinking
for both of these is that if the code seems to work ok, then there's no
reason to attempt the gnulib thing.
