[PD-dev] Compiling iemnet on Windows XP

[Dan Wilcox]

Looks like Windows has a posix pipe function, it’s called “_pipe”: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/edze9h7e(VS.71).aspx <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/edze9h7e(VS.71).aspx>

I imagine this just requires using a platform check to name the function using a macro.
