Given that it's known to have a lot of issues, I would suggest that we schedule Windows host support for deprecation in 0.15. I would not recommend that we remove any of the WIN32 code from the build but basically stop trying to make it even build until someone steps up to really actively maintain and enhance the Windows port. I would still suggest we take patches if anyone wants to submit them but we should not avoid patches that are known to break win32 (unless the fix is trivial).
I was planning to submit a qemu-thread port for Win32 for 0.14, which of course means doing some basic sanity testing of the port. However, I'm not in any way trying to support anything more complicated than raw images and SDL/VNC. In particular, I'm not going to test networking.
