CPU in makefile defines target CPU.
-DWIN64 passed to compiler does nothing besides pointing out to source
code we are targeting x64 or IA64.

Source code clearly states it was meant as a compile-time check:
#ifdef WIN64
"win64",
#endif
Honestly, I'm not sure what's the point in knowledge what OS version
we are running.
