Well, the baz format archives (with $archive/category--branch--version/
instead of $archive/cat/cat--branch/cat--branch--version) are much more
friendly to the windows filesystem.
The painful operations are revision libraries and working trees.
Especially the temporary checkouts, where you have
$rl/archivename/category/category--branch/category--branch/version/
,,temporary-new-revision/category--branch--version-patches/{arch}/
category/category--branch/category--branch--version/
patch-log/...
That is where I was running into problems.
