No, this is backwards. gtkstatusicon-x11.c is named like it is because
it is the X11-specific implementation of the statusicon api. 
gtktrayicon.c may compile on win32, but that is completely irrelevant, 
since we want to use native win32 apis for status icons here, not the
freedesktop.org system tray specification, that is implemented in
gtktrayicon.c. There is no need to name the file gtktrayicon-x11.c,
since there will not be a gtktrayicon-win32.c (you can't embed
widgets into the win32 notification area).
