-    Versions of Windows without the word "server" in their name
-    sometimes have problems. This is especially the case for Win98,
-    but it also happens in some cases for XP, especially if you don't
-    have much memory. The problem is that we don't use the networking
-    system calls in a very Windows-like way, so we run out of space in
-    a fixed-size memory space known as the non-page pool, and then
-    everything goes bad. The symptom is an assert error with the
-    message "No buffer space available [WSAENOBUFS ] [10055]".  <a

-    Most developers who contribute to Tor work with Unix-like operating

-    Windows.

-    <li>
-    More esoteric or archaic operating systems, like SunOS 5.9 or
-    Irix64, may have problems with some libevent methods (devpoll,
-    etc), probably due to bugs in libevent. If you experience crashes,
-    try setting the EVENT_NODEVPOLL or equivalent environment
-    variable.
