The WIN95 target is better maintained.  For lack of time, some of the
new features in the past four or five years were only added to the WIN95
target.

It is unfortunate that NSPR has two implementations on Windows
and the obvious, better-sounding name (WINNT) is used for the
non-default target.  This has caused a lot of confusions.
