That's typically true, but again: specifics matter.  For instance, if
the majority of the code controlled by the HAVE_DAEMON macro is
platform-dependent anyway, we would simply be replacing

#ifdef WINDOWSNT
...
#endif

with

#ifdef HAVE_DAEMON
#ifdef WINDOWSNT
...
#endif
...
#endif

Which situation pertains in the actual code?
