I believe we have two problems here:

1. winebrowser uses DdeInitializeW and then expects to get ansi data. This is
backwards.

2. WDML_BuildExecuteCommand decides whether the server is unicode (and thus
whether to do a conversion) by looking at the server's window AND the client's
window. So if a client is ansi and a server is unicode, we never convert the
data.

Changing the DdeInitializeW call in winebrowser to DdeInitializeA actually
gives the correct result in both win98 and winxp mode, since we always get ansi
data as winebrowser (now correctly) expects.
