Hi,
to be really honest, I'm not sure I like the idea of adding all this
code only to enable such an extension benefiting only Windows/MinGW. By
the way, submitter himself noticed that subclassing is another viable
option.
At minimum, let's look forward some feedback from the maintainers of the
Cygwin / MinGW ports...
Paolo.
