I don't think that a MSVC specific header will do good. mode_t shouldn't actually be used in mingw either, even if they define it. I stumbled over such glue code a couple of times and the only reason I can come up with why they have it is backwards compatibility with old code. So it's rather a general WIN32 thing. And I absolutely agree that putting all the WIN32 stuff into win32.[ch] would make the code prettier. I just don't feel enough itch to approach this scratching myself.
