Yeah, actually, if the full ugly truth be known, this was hacked up in the
last moments before the first CodeFusion release, so I really didn't try
anything but Linux (the CodeFusion target platform) and Solaris (the box I
actually worked on).  Anything else was just gravy.  It really needs to be
worked over to make sure it is general.  Also giving it a whirl under Cygwin
would be a pretty good idea...
