I have searched GetConsoleWindow in MinGW\include and found

MinGW\include\wincon.h:153:HWND WINAPI GetConsoleWindow(void);

Around line 153 in wincon.h

#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0500)
BOOL WINAPI GetConsoleDisplayMode(LPDWORD);
HWND WINAPI GetConsoleWindow(void);
#endif
#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0501)
DWORD WINAPI GetConsoleProcessList(LPDWORD, DWORD);
#endif

For Windows XP or later, is WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0501 hold?
Do I have to set -DWIN32_NT=0x500 ?
