Except that would be a lie. Perhaps:

"Postgresql developers do not have the ability to force anyone to do
this. The best idea is if you could be so kind to experiment a bit and
see if you can get it to work...".

"We" have no resources to direct, or to look into things. Only
individual developers (or their employers) can direct their own
resources.

If Vista is so important, why aren't seeing a rash of installation
reports about it working (or not). Why hasn't someone offered to setup
a buildfarm machine?

Have a nice day,
