Hello,
As long as this thread occurred I dare to draw your attention to the fact that
several structures in winnt.h should be packed to 2 bytes -- namely
IMAGE_DOS_HEADER, MAGE_NT_HEADERS, IMAGE_SYMBOL, IMAGE_COFF_SYMBOLS_HEADER,
IMAGE_RELOCATION, IMAGE_BASE_RELOCATION  and IMAGE_LINENUMBER --
at least one Matt Pietrek's program for reading object files fails to work 
without it.
Once I posted my diffs to this list - so if you are planning significant changes in
win32 headers please take a look at it.

Vadim Egorov
