I meant to respond to this, sorry!

Yeah that's technically an option, though unless I misunderstand their
use, this would still require a Windows license of some nature. I'm
not against doing this otherwise.

I'm also totally happy to carry config for different building options
in a win32/ folder in the repo, as long as they're maintained and not
a real maintenance burden.

Kai
