Thanks for the suggestion.  I tried this, but just removing the braces leads to this error:

  CXX    win32-low.o
cc1plus: warning: command line option ‘-Wmissing-prototypes’ is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++
/home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/win32-low.cc: In function ‘int get_child_debug_event(DWORD*, target_waitstatus*)’:

      |                                 ^~~~

So it would require other changes.  I'd rather keep this patch trivial, just removing the ifdefs,
and keep this other change for another time.
