If your target is w95 and WNT4, you should write two different drivers. If 
your target is W98 and W2K, it may be needed to write only one (WDM: Windows 
Driver Model), but I am not sure. For WNT4, try asking in the ros-kernel 
mailing list (http://www.reactos.com/). AFAIK, we are actually the only ones 
on the net trying to use the --subsystem:native with gcc/ld (mingw32). 
(Anyone else: please contact us! We have some troubles...).
