Comment:

 I'd be happy to take a well-written patch for eventlog support. Tenatively
 assigning to 0.2.5, with the understanding that the patch timing is
 unknown.

 The documentation I read suggests that this functionality was added in
 Vista.  if so, we should make sure that we add it in a way (using the
 usual GetProcAddress tricks) that does not break XP.  (Or I could be
 looking at something else called Event Log.)
