Paul:

While that is true, I thought the consensus was that testing would still 
be available for Window9X/ME.  There are users (like me) that are 
running Windows9x/ME programs and don't want to loose the ability to run 
them under Wine.

This function may not exist in Windows versions after Windows2K either, 
that is why I proposed changing this from a version check to actually 
checking for the called function.

And lastly, I agree with adding tests to specifically check what happens 
in the riched20.dll for UNICODE calls.
