const cleanup round 1

[Mike Schaadt]

after some extra testing I found that it's not that my modification
would forbid that, but it would complain about the second parameter
not being const(which I thought that the compiler would be fine with
auto promoting the WCHAR ** to const WCHAR **).  Fair enoug then.
Strike those modifications.  Should I resubmit without those? or
should I put that off until I get a second round ready?
