One way to convince Eli might be to actually try it out and show the
solution. But I am not entirely sure you will survive long enough to
succeed with finding the solution... - it might include more work than
you expect, trying to fix some bugs here and some bugs there. And
convincing those responsible for the tools to include your changes so
that everything is stable (you might get the message they do not care
that much about w32 to change anything...).

But it would good if you did succeed.
