Therefore, once those four patches land (might be a little while, one may cause problems for Apple folks), I claim that this setup is finally ready for Windows developers to use. There are still a few rough edges (creating patches to files that don't have svn:eol-style set may result in patches that don't apply/unapply cleanly, due to an apparent SVN bug; I haven't tested all the scripts [e.g. bugzilla-tool], just the ones I use), but by and large things work.
