I don't know about POSIX OS-es, but inside configure.ac we already test for the
presence of windows.h so perhaps checking that would be sufficient? Another
thing that could be checked is the value of $host_os, which is set by
AC_CANONICAL_HOST (that macro is not currently called). I guess the test should
be for mingw* or cygwin*. Can anybody confirm this?
