May I ask how it handles image data that is known to cause the problem?
What about its architecture that makes Windows problematic? It could be
a matter of restructuring some gnustep-gui code (that isn't likely to
be easy) or migrating it to a new API for compositing that suits better
cross-platform needs. Is it something in the way colours are stored or
how we handle device handles (HDC's)?
