Agreed, will do in v4.

> Also, it looks like not all Win2016 servers versions support VirtualAlloc2, I'm using Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Datacenter Version 10.0.14393 and LoadLibraryA failed to load VirtualAlloc2.

I confirm this. Documentation states Windows Server 2016 is supported, but it
is at least partially incorrect, see comments in meson.build and GitHub issue:

	https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/feedback/issues/1129

How would you estimate Server 2016 support importance? Server 2019 and
Windows 10 are known to work.
