Another option would be to use a cross platform app layer wrapper (base stuff, not gui) that handles the pain for us. OpenFrameworks, for instance, uses Poco<http://pocoproject.org/index.html> which greatly eases threading, etc between Windows & Unix. Of course, it's a C++ library, so that's probably a different story with the Pd core ...

For instance, here's the Poco Process class: http://pocoproject.org/docs/Poco.Process.html

Short digression-- after writing the Flext mingw build tutorial I've become much
more understanding of Sevy's approach of actively not supporting Windows.  I
don't agree with it, as I think so much of Pd already runs adequately on Windows
to warrant pd~, too, in order to offer free software to as many users as possible.
But his was certainly a valid, compelling, and time-saving approach. :)
