[PATCH 01/20] dlls/kernel32/tests/heap.c: enable compilation with long types

Hi,

My understanding is that these patches are pretty much independent from 
each other. If so it may help a bit to not send them as a patch series, 
that is without the partX/total numbering. It could still be a thread 
for the sake of the mailing list though I don't know if that's easy to 
achieve.

The reason is that for patch series it has to concatenate each part with 
all the preceding ones. In this case this means more and more things to 
recompile and thus increasingly long tasks as it progresses through the 
series.

That said, for a series like this, most of the time is spent running the 
tests on Windows so it would only help a little bit. That means if not 
making a patch series is not practical it's ok not to.

There's no need to resend the already sent patches of course.


Also there was a question about job priority the other day on the 
mailing list. Notice that this job got a higher niceness that regular 
mailing list patches: 6 instead of 5. That's because one of its tasks 
had a long timeout. That mechanism still leaves a lot of room for 
improvement though.
