It turns out that the number of bugs is much larger than we originally
estimated.  We keep uncovering new problems as we go, and they are not
easy to fix, especially since the Windows sources aren't available, so
we need to guess what exactly is broken to devise a work-around.

Several people work on this very hard, and your sarcasm hardly helps
them.
