But this specific instance is a bit nasty, since on 64-bit Windows
compilers sizeof(long) == sizeof(DWORD). I suspect that's
unintentional and this really wanted to use e.g. sizeof(void *), even
though it shouldn't matter in practice because the TODO_REG_DATA flag
should only make a difference on Wine.
