 Replying to [comment:6 hamish]:

 otherwise the main danger on Windows is trying to restart a session when
 you've already got the same one minimized. (?)

 Which isn't much of a danger. The biggest issue with concurrent use is
 that the WIND file is per mapset, not per session. The mere existence of
 another session with the same mapset isn't an issue; it only becomes an
 issue if both sessions are actually running commands.
