I have support for xp and xp-WoW64 in my prototype, the difficulty is
that the xp-WoW64 doesn't work with Steam because of the 64-bit
"helper".

The most interesting patches are 5 and 6, 7 is trying to figure out
what is going on with the 64-bit version (it fails to even read the
function memory at all).  Michael has a brilliant scheme for getting
the sysenter to work, but I'll leave that up to him to discuss.

Best,
Erich
