What do you want to know? I can't say too much about this, for
commercial reasons, but I can observe that Win32 is not that different
from Unix as regards implementing GC (the main difference is in
catching memory errors to implement barrier methods).

Oh, and Win95 won't let you implement your own threads; it insists you
use OS-provided stacks (otherwise various system calls break). No such
problem on NT, natch.
