Any win32 developers willing to test build a patch for me?

I'm nearing the end of my patch to help system administrators configure
and deploy psi for use on a network and could use a hand making sure I
didn't cause a problem building for other OS (I only have access to
Linux machines at present).  The patch isn't completely finished, but
the parts I'm concerned about possibly breaking are.

Basically, the presence of a "defaults.xml" file with content similar to
below configures psi to show different defaults in the account dialog
when dealing with an account named "Default" (will be changed to avoid
the new account dialog completely and avoid the "Default" hack before
I'm done).  If such a file is not present, there should be no change in
behavior.

<!DOCTYPE firsttimedefaults>
<firsttimedefaults>
 <accname method="const">Test Setup!</accname>
 <user method="system" />
 <server ssl="true" allowplain="true" autoconn="true" reconn="true">
  <jdomain method="fromhostname">this.text.ignored</jdomain>
  <override method="usedomain" port="5768">badservertext</override>
 </server>
</firsttimedefaults>

In particular, I'm looking to make sure the user is properly captured
from the win32 environment variable (I'm told windows uses USERNAME,
*nix uses USER) and that the code for usedomain and fromhostname
compiles on a windows machine (gethostname( and getdomainname( system
library functions).

If I get (a) volunteer(s), I'll send a darcs bundle of the patch and

Presence of the QCA-GnuPG plugin is dangerous anyway (as mentioned in
the Darcs MOTD for a few months now). Until it is finished, don't
install it.
