Thanks. This version looks better.

How about stashing the above offsets in windows_gdbarch_data, and then 
using them here?

I'd add a comment to the above conditional block on why we're doing this 
relocation now, if you think it is worth mentioning.

It seems to me the behavior has changed now, hence why it seems 
worthwhile adding some information.

Otherwise this LGTM.
