No need.  I have done this many times.  The only advantage windows has is that
the MSVC compiler is the best X86 compiler there is.  So windows will produce a
higher NPS at the same CPU clock frequency.  But not because it is more or
less efficient as an O/S, because in Crafty the O/S is simply not used very much
during a search.
