Meh. I'm not really willing to go through the pushups that would be
needed to deal with that, even if it can be shown that the performance
cost is noticeable. We've already kluged our source code for Windows
far beyond what anybody would tolerate for any other platform, and
I find that to be quite enough bending over for Redmond.
