Good question.
I've never actually seen/used a 64bit WinXP, so I didn't even consider this
case.

According to the microsoft docs, Wow64GetThreadContext/Wow64SetThreadContext/
Wow64SuspendThread are also available from Vista upwards, so WOW64 debugging
is impossible on XP.

Should I error() in do_initial_(windows|child)_stuff for WOW64 processes if any
of the functions is missing?
