Well, due to some shortcomings in Imlib2, I'm afraid this will never
happen. Imlib2 won't build on Win32, and it's not thread-safe, so it
won't work on Netscape Server or IIS, and whether or not it'll work with
the next version of Apache is debatable.
But, for the present time, it's a handy alternative. The 0.2 release that
I'm heading towards will more or less match GD's functionality, and go
beyond it in a few places.
