If you prefer, I can do something similar to what we do to handle
the register mapping.  Attached is a patch that does that, and only
touches windows *-nat code. Untested for now; will test and add
a ChangeLog if this is your prefered approach.

This can be simplified a little further and have everything done
in windows-nat.c, but it would probably be considered uglier:
include "i386-tdep.h" and "amd64-tdep.h" in windows-nat.c, and
then have a quick check to determine which platform we are, and
then set then implement the segment_register_p function using either
a check on sizeof (void *), or a #ifdef [...] #else [...]...
