Why? That's the OS the app is being compiled on/for. Let's consider another example. Windows Services for Unix Applications (I think that's what it's called now) is a POSIX subsystem built into Vista and Windows 7. There, both Windows and Posix would definitely be defined, and I *think* Win32 would be defined as well. I suppose one could argue that the OS version should be Interix instead of Windows, but it amounts to the same thing.
