Rather than littering code with ifdefs is it not possible to
just not build these tests on Windows?

Originally I took the approach not building on Windows, but then the community reached to a point that instead of maintaining two lists of source files to be build on Windows and on non-Windows, we use the same list, and add test stubs for not-yet-supported-on-windows ones.
