AW: Is minimal required platform Windows 7 only for the 5.3 or later for gnuplot for windows?

[Bastian M. <bma...@we...>]

For 5.2 this hasn't changed in syscfg.h. If the Direct2D windows terminal
backend is included in the build, the executable will only run on Vista SP2
with platform upgrade or later, though.  Moreover there could be
restrictions implied by the libraries and compiler chain used, in particular
Qt.
