As MPD now also is available as Win32 binary, I decided to test client175 on my
windows 7 based server.
Client175 uses the pwd module, which is unavailable on Windows. I removed the
lines of code that had something to do with this (4 or so lines in server.py
that have RUN_AS and/or pwd in them). Obviously now the server cannot be run as
a different user. I'm not sure if this is a security risk or not.
Other than that client175 seems to work fine on Windows. So my suggestion is to
create an alternative for the setuid() or to bypass it just on windows based
systems.
