No, you should never look at a disassembly of a Windows dll, period.

Alexandre, I have read it before my answer and I found it to be
contradicting other documentation page. So I had to interpret this
contradiction.
Do you and other folks agree that part of the documentation is
misleading or even incorrect in that regard?
It doesn't seem clear to me whether that page advises disassembling the
function or its caller, but since it's ambiguous (and not particularly
helpful) I've just removed the entire section.
