It doesn't matter so much because even if it lies it will still give a
different answer between XP (and downlevel) and Vista (and uplevel) even if we
get behind in the manifests.
Tobias, I vote you put together a pull request for 3.8 soon.

Hi Bob,
would it possible for you to incorporate my proposed changes in the next RC of
3.8?
I think the changes are not that "severe" and will fix the problem with using
driver-installs
in burn on Windows XP. For all other OS-versions nothing will change...
Best regards,
Tobias

Since OsGetVersion() uses GetVersionEx(), it might break for Windows 8.1 and
newer which I think lie about being Windows 8 - you're supposed to use the
version helper API now.
Not a problem for Burn: I added the WinBlue compatibility GUID to the
manifest so GetVersion* won't lie and Blair added the call to RtlGetVersion
which doesn't lie (though it would take a minor refactoring to use it).
