And no, I've never bothered testing it with Win9x since I don't use it, but I've heard from folks who have managed to use it successfully on Win9x - I seem to remember that getting it to run in Win95 took a few tweaks since I think that it required certain service packs, but if I remember correctly Win 98 and later are very straight forward and worked out of the box.
The biggest gnuserve complication is that the XEmacs folks forked the code and their version is very different to the original version (and incompatible since the lisp files rely on stuff that the FSF emacs doesn't support).

The notes at this 3+ year-old page mention that Win9x is untested, and do not give any installation procecures. http://www.wyrdrune.com/index.html?gnuserv.html~main And there's no Win2K-ish INSTALL in here: http://www.wyrdrune.com/Files/gnuserv.zip And the FAQ lists 6+ year-old source code problems http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/faq3.html
