Windows is a different beast altogether. 

Currently the serial access is done through the Cygwin/POSIX layer. 
However, I have it on my list to provide a Win32 API serial port layer (in 
ser_win32.c). It's most of the way done. I currently have problems with 
getting a serial_drain() to work correctly which causes the verify to not 
work correctly, but the write is working just fine. (Alex Shepherd: if 
you'd like to help out on this, let me know.) The main reason to provide a 
Win32 API serial port layer, is to eventually get avrdude to build without 
linking to the Cygwin DLL.

Also, I do my testing on a stk500. I don't have access to other 
programmers.
