I'm not sure this is a good idea. "win32" is used in the same way as "posix" to refer to a set of platform APIs. "win" alone should be expanded. "w32" is something which few users will imagine to grep for when searching for it. "win32" and "windows" look reasonable to me, while I agree that "win" is not descriptive enough.
