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.
