Summary: PLATFORM macro in PC/pyconfig.h already defined by Apache

Initial Comment:
Both pyconfig.h from Python and os.h from Apache define the PLATFORM macro ("win32" vs. "Win32").

For projects which include both (like mod_wsgi) this generates a level 1 warning in Visual Studio.

Maybe the PLATFORM define could be renamed to PY_PLATFORM? There are a few other macros which could potentially collide with other libraries like COMPILER.

Obviously this problem is shared by Python and Apache. I'm not implying that Python is the one which should fix it.
