Sure, it *can* be. But that doesn't mean I can rely on my end users to be able to do that. Currently I can ship a single 32-bit MSVCRT binary and be sure it'll work on any version of Windows that matters. It'll also work in Wine or ReactOS. >Release build should be tested on Windows.

I have Windows virtual machines for testing but they expire every 90 days. Indeed, one of my chores for today is to reinstall three Windows VMs that have expired. I don't want to then have to reinstall a development environment when I already have everything I need on Fedora.
