BTW, in case nobody knows, the BOOL->BSTR conversion is localized in 
WinXP (so that in Spanish locales, conversion to strings gives 
"Verdadero", not "True" as tested). Apparently it is *not* localized in 
Win98SE. I don't have any other Windows versions available, but this 
means at least two test failures on non-English versions of WinXP. Does 
this mean that a comparison to a specific string is pointless and should 
be removed?

The following cryptic message was allegedly found in the inner edge of a Windows
XP installation CD:

It is rumored that only a true Unix Wizard can decypher this mysterious message,
which supposedly encodes the true nature and purpose of the software.
