I think it'd be reasonably easy in any language really, but that's
beside the point - if you're volunteering to do it, you get to pick
language :)
Does Delphi bring in any additional runtime requirements, though? I
don't think we'd want to add a big extra runtime for such a small thing.

How would it deal with multiple servers (same or different version)
running on the same box? I did think about this for 10 minutes back when
we first did 8.0 for win32, but I got stuck somewhere between that
question and the fact that I didn't need/want it myself :-)
