So what does that mean? That the code is currently broken and is incorrectly included on Windows? If so, it should be fixed in a separate PR. Or is it just a stylistic issue, that both `_WINDOWS` and `WINDOWS` are defined when building hotspot on Windows, but the rule is to stick to `_WINDOWS`? If so, I can sneak in a fix for it here, even if it is not really part of the x86 removal.
