Hi,

The project in common/nb_native/nbproject does not have a build configuration 
for Windows. The project itself should still be usable for browsing the code, 
but it might require some changes to make it build correctly. If you have a 
NetBeans / SolarisStudio installation on Windows and want to make the changes 
required to add a build configuration for Windows I'd be happy to sponsor the 
change.

Thanks,
/Jesper
