re: d3d8header patch

Hi,

Just fyi, according to the msdn:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dx8_c/directx_cpp/Graphics/Reference
/CPP/D3DX/Interfaces/ID3DXFont/ID3DXFont.asp

It would appear those should go in a new header d3dx8core.h. If you need to
pick them up by people who include d3dx8.h, add a #include <d3dx8core.h>
into d3dx8.h. This assumes we try to keep our definitions in the same
location as windows...

Hmm. I am for whichever is more "correct". I am not
sure if having it in exact same header file makes
difference for wine since the header is not same as it
would be under VC++.

If someone has better idea/reason for either way,
please let me know.

Thanks
Yong

I think that when in doubt the policy is to follow the latest Win32 SDK.
The rational is that eventually these headers will make their way to
Visual C++ and then everyone is going to be using them.

We do... for Winelib applications (Windows applications recompiled on
Unix against the Wine headers and libraries).
