It seems like the Windows version is already interruptible, see
w32proc.c:sys_wait (wait_for_termination calls `wait' on Windows, but
`wait' is a macro that resolves to sys_wait).  It calls a Windows API
that allows to specify a timeout, and we set that timeout to 1 sec.
So Emacs on Windows checks for QUIT roughly once a second.
