Well, actually, windows.h fails to compile with -Za. So using the flag to get
any Boost code working would be rather counterproductive, as it would indeed
be a headache getting it to work in Windows programs. :)

(apparently there is some __inline and __asm stuff in winnt.h among other
things; perhaps there is a way to shut those off with defines, obviously at
the cost of some performance)

And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive
them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.
