Make it "cygwin or mingw" and you've got my support.  As long as we
have ONE windows platform covered.

A trivial custom socket layer isn't too hard, if you don't mind it
being trivial and custom.  Make it lisp-like: pass char *[], return
status and char *[].

We could have pcb listen on a TCP socket and do a mini-http server,
too.  A trivial web server isn't that many lines of code, if you only
use it as an API and not a generic web server.  It could return only
text/plain or text/xml, for example, or sometimes pcb/board or
pcb/element.
