I see the same result as you.

But if I compile with "-std=gnu++11", I get "WIN32".

I believe that not specifying "-std" is equivalent to "-std=gnu++03", which
means the 03 standard plus "gnu extensions."

I get:

   (no -std)             WIN32
   -std=c++03        no WIN32
   -std=gnu++03     WIN32
   -std=c++11        no WIN32
   -std=gnu++11     WIN32

So it looks to me as if having WIN32 defined is considered to be a
"gnu extension."  (Why, I don't know.)  And that the WIN32 issue
does not seemed to be linked specifically with the c++11 standard.

I used:

   C:\>g++ --version
   g++ (rubenvb-4.8-stdthread) 4.8.1 20130324 (prerelease)
