I don't have any long term "low expectations" of the win32 port, just
transient ones. That is, it is a fairly radical port, more so than
moving between unix environments. Once the win32 proves itself for a
while and we have established a history of stability and lack of data
corruption then my confidence in the win32 port will be as high as any
other database that runs on win32 (SQL Server, etc...). To assume that
we will nail all of this on the first pass is hubris.
