If you can't compile, security fixes aren't worth anything. And while we don't support XP, the v140_xp toolset is in more of a grey area. There are real ways you could be forced into using it besides targeting XP.

Max - I'd rather just remove the ifdef checks completely. Fairly sure I added them in the migration from VC10, but they are simply incorrect (the header is from the WinSDK which is not the same as _MSC_VER) and will always be there for the versions of the SDK we allow, even back to 3.5.
