Yeah.  I'm gonna poke around at it a bit, see if i can come up with
what i'd call The Right Solution for NetBSD, then discuss it here or
someplace.

I've had to cope with this before (at my previous job), and our
solution there was to just do the checkout of the source tree on
windows, i.e. _don't_ share the source tree via samba (or whatever)
between UNIX and windows builds.  I don't think that's appropriate in
this case, since it'd really be a fairly large amount of source ("all
of" sys, to make things easy)...

I also have in the past created some Evil to do "something better"
with project and workspace files.  I might poke around at some of
that, too...
