Yes, I agree. Maybe it is just because there seem to be too many subtle bugs 
that one stumble on on the w32 side. Problems with ported gnu applications, 
problems within Emacs... It wastes a lot of time that the code in some cases 
does not seem to be written to be portable from the beginning. A lack of 
structure I believe.

And of course not everyone has the knowledge about networking on both w32 and 
*nix which seems to be needed to fix those things.
