Roger Leigh commented on XERCESC-2190:
--------------------------------------
I checked both call sites.
WindowsFileMgr.cpp: Used to check if on NT or not. Can be dropped entirely (I
doubt anyone cares about Windows 9x at this point)
Win32TransService: Used to check if on XP or later. Can be dropped entirely
(even XP is obsolete and unsupported at this point)
So both should be completely safe to drop. They are only needed for Win9x and
Win2000 respectively.
