The `aval` compiler's cross-platform compatibility and core compilation process.

`aval` is positioned as an open-source format for interactive video. Its compiler is a core component. The current bug severely compromises its cross-platform viability, limiting its market reach and adoption, particularly among Windows developers, and undermining its foundational reliability.

This report identifies a critical, platform-specific bug rendering the `aval` compiler entirely unusable for Windows users. The core issue stems from `syncDirectory()` attempting a POSIX-only `fsync` operation on directories, which is unsupported on Windows. This fundamental incompatibility preve...
