It works and returns ("w32").

In general, all x-* functions do work on Windows in GUI sessions,
because the Lisp application code is too replete with calls to these
functions, so if they didn't work, many features would fail on Windows
for no good reason.

So you should always assume those functions work on Windows, unless
there's no way they can be made workable.

Emacs will load and use them behind your back anyway, when the default
font doesn't support some special character.
