Will this libc be interoperable with DLLs in the MS PE/COFF format? IMO this would be essential. Microsoft's own Interix / Unix for NT did not catch on because you could not the many system services when you decided to use the Unix-like libc. If someone wants to run a glibc on Windows, without the requirement of interoperability with the system services, he can just run a Linux+glibc system inside a virtual machine. Bruno
