I have shortened your paragraph to:

       Because Win32 is significantly different from the Unix platforms
       supported in previous releases, this port might have more bugs
    than other supported platforms in this release.   Please
    test it thoroughly before using it in production.

and made the change in release.sgml.  Do we need more?


I don't much like "might have more bugs". Perhaps "might be less robust" or "might be less stable"?

"lacks the extended testing"? Or even "we don't have an extended track-record on this platform".
