Yes, but the most-recent patch did something else than what you had objected to, and should avoid its problems. > Shadowing library functions is a maintenance burden in the long run. It's a maintenance burden no matter how we do it. When it's easy, as is the case here, it's better to address Windows-specific problems in the Windows code. This relieves the mainline maintainers of the maintenance burden of reading Windows code, and that is a win. Besides, this particular patch has almost no burden on the Windows side. We're talking about six simple lines that fit nicely into an already-existing framework for this sort of thing.
