Dunno, but imho it is to much work to get the x gui working under windows.
I tryed to do it once until I decided to rewrite nearly everything. Of
course
this failed, too, because developing a gui isn't that easy/interesting as I
thought first.
If you want you can take a look at the code I uploaded to win32-beta. See my
other mail for details. At least it displays a nice skinned gui ;)
Who cares about usability...

Very nice. Can someone please add this and the one from
