For what it's worth; Jack on Windows is used for providing sound
in two permanent art installations (http://www.intravisiongroup.com/).
One of them has been running for over two years now. The machines
are rebooted each night, and the oldest one is still using a version of
jack for windows released in 2007.
We've had no problem with jack for windows.
