[cfe-dev] Compiler error including windows.h

I build clang from the latest source using mingw-64/gcc-7.1. Using 
mingw-64/gcc-7.1 as the backend, when I compile:

// test_compiler.cpp

#include <windows.h>
int main()
{
return 0;
}

with the command line:

some_path/clang++" -c -x c++ -O0 -g -fno-inline -Wall -g -march=i686 
-m32" -o "some_path\test_compiler.obj" "test_compiler.cpp"

I get:

In file included from test_compiler.cpp:1:

                  ^

etc. with the same errors for all the other DEFINE_GUID s in winnt.h

Needless to say compiling the same source with mingw-64/gcc-7.1 directly 
succeeds.

Is this a bug in the latest clang source ?
