I spoke with Craig (from OPAL), and it seems he could be the next one to
maintain the WIN32 build. He is currently trying to cross-compile and
see what he can do to help.

However, I do not think Craig alone has enough spare time to code
missing pieces in the WIN32 build. 

So if we can get several people making it rock, it is worth it.

I'm just not a WIN32 developer :(
