I already submitted a bug to remove all these outdated macro, 
[JDK-8289772](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8289772): *Remove obsolete 
Windows version macros: IS_WIN2000, IS_WINXP, IS_WINVISTA*.

[My comment in 
JBS](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8289772?focusedId=14665584&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14665584)
 details usages of each macro.

Removing `IS_WIN*` macro came up in 
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/18736#discussion_r1567192769. 

Then there was an older bug 
[JDK-4639903](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-4639903): *Should consider 
replacing IS_WIN_* macros with a function* that's closed as duplicate of 
JDK-8289772.

I've unassigned the bug from myself.
