IMO Guido forward porting bit by bit in clean sections makes a lot of
sense. We get a lot more time to say 'this bit is unclean' and 'that bit
is good'. Say for example the getrusage stuff. So I'm for bringing in
the WIN32 stuff incrementally. Anything major - such as directly using
WinSock calls or implementing overlapped I/O - can then be evaluated on
it's merits, without all the trivial stuff being mixed into the same
patch.

Just my 2c.
