Given that on windows (NT at least), GDI objects live in kernel and are 
managed by win32k.sys, it is likely that win32k.sys handles this internally.

Windows 9x, I have no idea (perhaps user32.dll passes something special to 
gdi32.dll to do what is needed, perhaps user32.dll messes with the gdi 
handles directly)
