No I don't. I've never looked thru the VM source for Win32 calls that could
be POSIX calls. I just ported a POSIX app (OpenSolaris) to Windows (using
Cygwin 1.7 beta) and was impressed with how remarkably painless that was.
And being a Smalltalker/Squeaker, when possible, that question came to
mind. ---John
