won't this cause problems with extensions that need unix
specific stuff? or should they just be ported in any case?
heard that mingw latest version has very few interoperability
problems. however i'd like qt bindings for windows and i'm not
certain that mingw specific libs exist and i guess it'll be easier
to get stuff working using the vc stuff therefore. does limit
build env. to windows admittedly but i doubt thats gonna be a
real problem.
