can you tell me what's the issue with Vista? why it's not supported out of the box? is there anything special about it?

a) gcc is not available targeted at vista b) the configuration and build of libffi, on which jna depends, does not support MSVC and related tools

There is a port of libffi hard-coded to build under MSVC for Vista, and there is a pre-beta version of gcc targeting Vista, but it'd be a lot of work to put it all together in anything but a one-off, hard- coded fashion.
