The page for MSDN suggests the cutoff is Windows 8 (i.e. NT 6.2), not 8.1 (i.e.
NT 6.3). If true, just changing the version in that patch wouldn't be enough,
since supposedly the function should return TRUE if Windows 8 is in the
manifest, FALSE if not.

To test this, you'd want to create a manifest, declare *only* windows 8
compatibility (i.e. no 8.1 or 10), and check if the function returns TRUE. If
the documentation is accurate, it should. Unfortunately, it also means that the
implementation needs to do a bit of nontrivial parsing, but at least it would
look similar to 6719bf2e03.
