This would still give errors on every non-windows platform because
WORD would be undefined.

If it should be defined for all compilers except MSVC 6, should it not
be something like

#if _MSC_VER < 1201
/* Do nothing */
#else
typedef uint16_t WORD;
#endif

Assuming that _MSC_VER is 1200 on MSVC 6 and larger than that on newer
compilers.
