Windows binary (`node.exe`) in WSL will not work without workarounds such as
stdio redirection.

[^4]: Compiling Node.js for x86 Windows is currently impossible due to
issues with version 10.1 of the V8 engine. Support will come back to its
previous status as soon as possible.
[^4]: Running Node.js on x86 Windows should work and binaries
are provided. However, tests in our infrastructure only run on WoW64.
Furthermore, compiling on x86 Windows is Experimental and
may not be possible.

[^5]: Our macOS x64 Binaries are compiled with 10.15 as a target. Xcode11 is
required to compile.
