Is native dbghelp useful?

[Austin English]

I noticed Microsoft's got dbghelp in a download available...would the
native dll be useful to anyone? E.g., should I add it to winetricks?

Probably not, since it wouldn't understand wine's dlls :)

for most of the cases no, as it'll mean you won't get any debug 
information for the built-in modules
so I don't think it's useful (except for testing dbghelp itself, but you 
don't need to add it to winetricks for that)

Okay, thanks for the info!
