Personally I think the Windows team needs to just work harder. :D I
remember talking to someone (maybe you?) saying that the cmake files
didn't have any build support for mysql embedded, which is completely
false as I was actually learning about how libmysqld is built by
reading the (windows-only) cmake files. My guess is they need to use
mysql 5.1 instead of mysql 5.0.

The whole situation with Windows is a bit awkward since it conflates
the normal upstream/downstream separation.
