We documented Vista / Server 2008 because that is what our code is
declaring it wants in terms of Windows public APIs:
In osdep.h we have:
#ifdef _WIN32
/* as defined in sdkddkver.h */
#ifndef _WIN32_WINNT
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0600 /* Vista */
#endif
which tells Mingw / MSys not to expose windows header file declarations
that post-date Vista.
With regards,
Daniel
