I think it may be doable, but it's quite a time sink. We're leave all our mods in the code base for another day but the core issue is that the Windows "shortcut" is a third-class citizen compared to UNIX's symbolic link. And we use a lot of symbolic links, especially when constructing the "htdocs" directory for Apache. Now, in Python we can get around this (not efficiently, but good enough) but Apache just doesn't have the proper code to do this. The other option would be to run it all under Cygwin, except mod_python isn't really supported and that's a whole other can of worms.
