Description

_From [bruen...@google.com](https://code.google.com/u/109494838902877177630/) on August 21, 2014 11:05:01_

issue #1035 covers enabling AppInit for WOW64 on win8+. We blanket-disabled
AppInit for win8+ but we should be able to enable for non-WOW64. This
issue covers that.

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #1035 and the existing AppInit handling for Windows 8 and newer. Determine where the blanket disablement distinguishes WOW64 from non-WOW64, then verify that AppInit is enabled for non-WOW64 while WOW64 remains covered separately by issue #1035.
