- From what I can see, it doesn't appear to be in any header files, yet the 
function is there in kernel32, both the code and the spec file.  The only 
thing that is anywhere near similiar is SwitchToThreadStack defined in 
thread.h.
According to MSDN, it should be in winbase.h.  Anyone know why it isn't?
