    And once again: If this did not work easily on w32 too it might stop 
    people from using it.

We must reject any presumption that free programs should work on
Windows.  It is ok to cooperate with users who want to add such
support, but we must not make it part of the expected goals of a free
software project.  I think the GNU maintainer conventions file talks
about this.
