Is there a particular reason not to call NtGetTickCount64() directly here
as is also done in NtGetTickCount().

On a side note: I wonder if older C compiler versions will simply do the
right
coercion from ULONGLONG to DWORD in these cases.

No, but I didn't want the patch to do more than strictly needed for my purposes.

I wondered about that too but currently NtGetTickCount() does the same thing
(well, it coerces from LONGLONG to ULONG), so that's what I went by.
