Yeah, I was afraid of that. They deprecate GetVersionEx(), then don't
provide a replacement gives the same information and their recommended
replacement needs to be updated every new release. I'm thinking we're just
going to need to live with that warning message in that particular case.
I'm a little worried that they will no longer update GetVersionEx()...in
fact, I suspect they already have stopped, since it is still returning
10.00 for Windows 10. The docs I found did recommend using some APIs to
query the version of a Windows system dll, but I couldn't find any examples
showing how to use them.

I was able to eliminate the other three occurrences. Do you agree I should
restore that bit? Although I want to have it just say "Windows" now rather
than "WindowsNT"
