looks very interesting, indeed.
all of this was implemented in a bit of a hurry, but since it's based on my research, it should be a good starting point in understanding how Microsoft's NDR engine works. It doesn't properly implement marshalling alignment or memory sizing, may not handle a number of fringe cases, does not conform to the DCE RPC wire protocol (mostly because I don't have a description of it... where did you find it, Greg?), and probably needs some cleanup, but
I think, I had to sign away my firstborn to OpenGroup for it. If you feel like spending money /and/ signing away your firstborn, this looks like the definitive OpenGroup DCE package:

I can't find any legalese there to the effect of signing away my firstborn, they seem to just want purchase details. Care to elaborate? (And is it still okay for me to code on Wine even if my firstborn can't?)
and here is some free-as-in-beer RPC 1.1 stuff:

And on there, they just want to borg the email addresses of every reader, but not their souls or firstborns, as far as I can see.
In your previous patch you mentioned the possibility of a merge situation between us. Indeed, this is probably the case, but it's minor. I've been real busy lately with work, and other non-wine things, so I haven't been forging ahead at my usual clip. There's not a whole lot floating around in my tree that hasn't gone out to wine-patches ATM.
OK.
