Theoretically, v2.5 client *should* work on older Windows, but I don't
think anybody is going to test and ensure that being true. As for v3.0,
it might depend on whether the team will switch from MSVC2005 to
MSVC2008 for that release. AFAIK, the MSVC2008 runtime doesn't support
even NT4, not mentioning Win98...
