You are right, it's not.

As you found, the original issue reported here could be closed:
WINVER *is* already defined in pyconfig.h. I'm still -1 for defining
it generally. So to define WINVER for the extension modules that
are part of the core, it would be best to define it in pyd.vsprops,
and pyd_d.vsprops, not in a header file.

Martin
