Not exactly. You can restore some data because non windows file daemon
accept windows stream. And this is what the above statement means. But this
stream is what win32 BackupRead() generates. It could be the same bit2bit
what standard read() can generate but there is no guarantee. The Portable
flag replaces win32 BackupRead() for a simple read().
