Further, the documentation I found about GetLastError states W2K as minimum version, so I hope that you checked that this works with older Windows as well. Otherwise, I am fine with the patch.It seems that GraphicsMagick has been using GetLastError() for a very long time. Certainly at least since Y2K. There is no special provision in this part of the code for anything older than Windows XP and Windows 2000. Then again, practically no one cares about Windows versions older than this.
I think what has happened is that MS has abandoned WinNT and older and are thus ignoring them in MSDN. GetLastError certainly predates Win2k and I think it was in Win32 from from very beginning.
