I would like to stress the importance of Windows support in Guile, and I thank you for working on it.
In spite of LilyPond being compatible with Guile 3 for more than a year, we are still on Guile 2.2 solely because of lack of Windows support in Guile 3. LilyPond is not primarily targeted at
programmers but musicians, so a large part of our user base is on Windows and it is absolutely unthinkable for us to drop our Windows binaries.
