It also forces the target to carry its own weight, and doesn't force people
uninterested to pay attention.  But that is something for trunk branch, not
for fixes like 2.6

But that works to ways, IOW it also means you can build in a complete
unicode emulation without the 99.9% NT majority suffering from it (read: getting
endless binary size discussions)

(win9x support might be something that will get harder when more unicode
centric releases as fpc/trunk.7.1 come out, though the unicode changes are
glacial at the moment)
