normally it is added to the CPP_FLAGS by configure, if needed (i.e. for 
the Windows gcc build), or by the Project (for the MSVC build).

It's not defined in any include file.

On Unix it is only ever used to test the way the Windows port works, and 
then you have to define it manually, e.g. by passing it in to configure 
via preset CPP_FLAGS. Standard Unix builds don't work this way.
