Comment(by nickm):

 Hm.  It should be possible to figure out what "Very recent version of
 Windows" is by looking at the rest of the string where it says
 [major=X,minor=Y].  If major.minor is 6.1, that's Windows 7.  If it's 6.0,
 that's Vista, and so on.  From the table in src/common/compat.c :

           { 6, 1, "Windows 7" },
           { 6, 0, "Windows Vista" },
           { 5, 2, "Windows Server 2003" },
           { 5, 1, "Windows XP" },
           { 5, 0, "Windows 2000" },
           /* { 4, 0, "Windows NT 4.0" }, */
           { 4, 90, "Windows Me" },
           { 4, 10, "Windows 98" },
           /* { 4, 0, "Windows 95" } */
           { 3, 51, "Windows NT 3.51" },
           { 0, 0, NULL }

 Also, I am pretty sure that 'Longhorn' is just the older name for 'Vista',
 so all the Vista and Longhorn entries should be merged.

 Also, for Windows XP, since we have so many of those, can we split them up
 by service pack?

 Let's maybe 98SE and Windows 2000 into an 'old versions', or forget about
 them entirely.
