IMHO it would be better to have the *-sys programs, even if they do the same 
like the programs without -sys. It's not only because the documentation may 
be the same for all architectures, also admins don't need to remember that 
their is a difference at windows and addon-authors (e.g. authors of plattform 
independent TeX shells) wouldn't have to watch and test one more special 
case.
