Hi Juan,
The results you sent aren't very useful without more investigation.
Indeed. I have started doing that on msi (which is the first place where I spotted such a construct, but as the list shows, it's far from being the only one), and sent a patch this morning. However, I have neither the time, nor the knowledge of the Win32 API, to correctly fix all cases :)
This might be a useful janitorial project, and might be better tracked on the wiki than on this list.
Agreed. Last week, between other things, I asked Michael Stefaniuc exactly that. But he didn't reply yet, I know he's busy (or either mail was silently eaten by a spam filter...).
Lionel.
