nrpe for windows

[Dave Viner]

one thought I had on that issue is to use the new Apache Portable Runtime
for nrpe.  http://apr.apache.org/  This would allow the same (nrpe) code to
run on win32 and unix.  We could then slowly port the plugins themselves to
use this library when someone requests a win32 version of a plugin.  It
might not be perfect, but at least we could move towards a more
OS-independent codebase, even if we move very slowly.

NRPE requires that you run plugins.  Are you going to port all the plugins
too?

I think many (myself included) would jump at the opportunity for a more
homogenous solution (ie, NRPE), but it sounds like quite the task.  More
power to you if you can do it!
