I've been using it under cygwin for a while now. I do still get hangs
occasionally, but they're definitely not GnuTLS' fault (my X server
hangs as well at the same time, and sometimes I hadn't even started
gnus, so gnutls.el would not have been loaded yet), and they're very
highly correlated with wifi + ip address changes. I'd say go for it.
