I'd expect there's quite a lot of assembly and endianness-dependent stuff here and there. It's Microsoft. Their culture is about pride of things being arcane-complex inside, cause if you can untangle that, you are a good programmer. They think that. I think they think that. Maybe they are just vile.
Both arches are little endian btw.
I'm sure they have found something to make the port problematic.
I mean, it's a Microsoft product.
