From: Alin Serdean <aserdean at cloudbasesolutions.com>

getcwd - is used in lib/util.c. getcwd is deprecated on Windows but has
_getcwd which is defined in <direct.h>:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/sf98bd4y(v=vs.120).aspx

getpid - is used in several files (i.e. lib/vlog.c). getpid
is also and deprecated and _getpid should be used:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/t2y34y40(v=vs.120).aspx
The problem using _getpid is that the definition is in <process.h>.
A file called process.h also exists in the lib folder. This will mess up
includes.
An option would be to use a wrapper like we use for lib/string.h(.in) but
that would mean to also add it to the automake chain.
A simple solution would be to map it to GetCurrentProcessId
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms683180(v=vs.85).aspx

_getpid uses GetCurrentProcessId behind the scenes, casting the result
is not required.

v3: switch from <config.h> to <windefs.h>
v2: used an inline function for getpid to make it POSIX compatible as
suggested by Ben Pfaff
