I prefer the generic idiom 'typedef int dummy;' instead

Sure. But come to think of it, wouldn't it be better if we compiled stat-w32.c only on w32 platforms? As things stand, we're likely to run into other porting glitches on non-w32 platforms, due to compilers that complain about dummy declarations or whatever. Plus, people auditing builds have to deal with these compilations that do nothing.
