I have noticed that the gcc and clang compilers have defined the
preprocessing macro __unix__, but not __WINDOWS__, _WIN32, or _WIN64
when compiling a windows executable.
Why is this?
A C/C++ program will check for these macros if it wants to know which
operating system you are compiling for, and this will give the wrong result.
