If this is an instance of a more general problem that were able to
describe in a meaningful way, I guess it could be added in
`etc/PROBLEMS`, assuming it's a problem that can be common among Windows
users, some of whom might have no other exposure to Unix-style
applications other than via Emacs.
Obviously if it's just for `emacs-repository-{version|branch}` it's not
worth the trouble.
