I'm not sure you can trust /WP64 to generate warnings; it's
far more reliable to simply build 64 bit modules and determine
from those included headers what the true conflicts really are.

I'm guessing that VC isn't catching all the subtleties of what
the Win64 declarations would really be if you build for 64 bits.
