I know. that would be obvious what is the target to build for if one
is proposing to add Makefile.win32. but just adding CMakeLists.txt may
implies to work on all of platforms and you just tested it on Win32
(or MSVC) only. it's the problem. or if you can rename it to something
containing win32, that may be good.

Is it not maintained by anyone else? I guess it is. the point is
non-maintained files/architectures may be obsoleted in the future, to
avoid any trouble.
