Well, I don't know squat about Windows programming, but just for the
heck of it I tried compiling UnixDirectoryPlugin under Windows. After
stubbing out a call to a routine in sqXWindows.c, #define lstat stat,
and a quick hack to the Makefile.MING32 file, the darned thing just up
and worked.

Sorry about replying to my own post, but I thought this was interesting
and unexpected.
