I'm working on adding a C++ extension module to my copyObject
patchset[1]. But turns out that this change has completely broken
compiling C++ extensions on MSVC. This is happening due to
__declspec(restrict) being replaced by __declspec(__restrict), which
the original comments also mentioned as the reason for having our own
flavor. This replacement then makes the core of a corecrt_malloc.h
MSVC header invalid[2].
So I think we should revert this patch.
