No.

Although I do my best to avoid platform-dependent tricks, some
things are platform-dependent anyway, like the DEFUN macro. If you
compile with Microsoft compiler, this is your case; can you use
gdb to dump any struct Lisp_Subr to see it's vectorlike_header?

Also, if you suspect potentially bogus struct Lisp_Vector pointers,
please try xvectype and xvecsize gdb commands to get something
more informative than just the header->size shown as integer.

I can't reproduce it on Linux, so it looks like the same
platform-dependent problem.
