Windows builds: Please enable ASLR and force DEP
...for obvious security profit.
ASLR is enabled by linker flags (I would probably just pass the GCC flags that Tor Bundle uses[1]). DEP is forced on 32-bit Windows by SetProcessDEPPolicy(PROCESS_DEP_ENABLE | PROCESS_DEP_DISABLE_ATL_THUNK_EMULATION)[2] (ignore return value).
