Why restrict this to Windows?
Suppose some asp.net user ends up with a broken wc, zips it up and gives it
to their unix sysadmin for troubleshooting?
Corner case, I know, but with such a distinctive env-var name, is there any
harm in letting this code remain available on all platforms, just in case?

And, if it is to be restricted to Windows, what about 64-bit Windows?
(#ifdef WIN32)

Max.
