1 Hello,

3 SUA is only available with "not home" versions of Vista, even with SP1.
4 Thus "Home" users are left on the side of the road. I think that if we
5 would have a more universal "Gentoo on Windows", we also should think
6 about mingwin+msys or cygwin.

8 So I will take a look at the Interix port and see how difficult it would
9 be to adapt it to mingw.
