That could be dangerous. Usually if I changed the x_ prefix to w32_,
I did so because the interface or effect of the function was
different. In this case, the interface was as follows.

static void w32_get_glyph_overhangs P_ ((HDC hdc, struct glyph *,
                                          struct frame *,
                                          int *, int *));

 x_get_glyph_overhangs was probably a wrapper to present the same
 interface as the x equivalent, but less efficient due to needing to
 get the hdc on every call (it is called for every glyph displayed, so
 that makes a big difference).
