I guess I have higher standards for portability; I support many flavors
of unix (including Linux, BSDi, AIX, SunOS, Solaris, HPUX, AIX, and ULTRIX),
as well as Windows95, WindowsNT, OS/2, and Macintosh.
Notably, the Windows ports have to deal with a non-POSIX universe, since
in the POSIX environs for Windows, you can't access things like the
Service Manager...
I don't think we got the live reboot thang to work under Mac, either,
but I'm not sure, having not touched that directly.
