Note that pc-win32 currently uses the Itanium ABI. To properly test
this you need to pass "-Xclang -cxx-abi -Xclang microsoft".

I would like to switch pc-win32 over to using the microsoft ABI by
default, even though it is not complete, as the code that it currently
generates is mostly useless. However, I do know of one person that
uses the current behavior with thunks to convert the ABI over ;/.
