Our dependency on anything beyond Windows 95/NT 3.1, maybe even Win32s, is really slight or nonexistant. If you look at the above list for example, InterlockedCompareExchange I /just/ introduced to replace a lock, a lock that I had only introduced recently as part of removing the giant lock (the lock is much smaller). IsDebuggerPresent is really optional. GetSystemTimeAsFileTime is trivial to do without. ImageList stuff probably isn't needed -- we certainly get stuff at the wrong layer because of a certain part of our architecture.
