Windows Subsystem for Linux continues to gain capability. It's allowing 
for Linux executables called from Windows and vice versa.

I understand the Windows-native LilyPond build consumes the most 
maintenance resources of all the builds.

Maybe eventually it's easier to have a PowerShell script or something 
that sets up everything LilyPond needs under the Windows Subsystem for 
Linux? Downside: needs a more-recent Windows 10 to do good with this.
