John,

Thanks for working on this.

This patch is puzzling me. I see you are adding this code snippet to 
several source files:

#include <platform.h>
#if PLATFORM(WINDOWS)
#include <windows.h>
#endif

What's particular about these files that they require this added snippet 
?

And secondly, it surprises me that these changes were not needed on the 
maint branch. The build server managed to build gnucash maint without 
issues on May 20, also using the new mingw-rt package.
