Got it.
Attached is bug_12785p3_2.patch which does pretty much what you've
asked for instead of bug_12785p3.patch
For some reason, LangOpts.MicrosoftMode is false with "-cxx-abi
microsoft", so I'm just checking for the ABI.
I can change that post-commit if that doesn't sound good for you.

I can do this if you believe that'd benefit me (like knowing the
codebase better).
Otherwise, I have a lot of "-cxx-abi microsoft" work to do :)
