I'm sorry I don't know how these things are handled in wine. I basically 
made these patches so we don't depend on libunicode in reactos anymore 
as these things are supported by the native api. However, these 
functions should now basically either link to ntdll (or in the "worst" 
case to msvcrt). I can't even compile and link wine because I haven't 
managed to setup a build environment... it however works fine in reactos 
compiling with mingw. As I'm not familiar with libc and the other stuff 
wine depends on, I'd appreciate if someone who has better knowledge in 
this area to "fix" these patches.

It'd however be great if these libraries can be built without libunicode 
because it's something obsolete for reactos (and libunicode has been 
bugging some of us devs).

Best Regards,
Thomas
