Hi Marc,

"As an aside, for those of you wondering, a lot of the MinWin magic happens
in KernelBase.dll.
It contains a lot of the functionality that was refactored from
Kernel32.dll, so for compatibility
with older programs, they left �forwarders� in there that pass the calls
down to KernelBase.dll
as necessary."
