First of all, my apologies for all the junk. I didn't fully understand
how the mail moderation exactly worked and made some wrong guesses.
I'm going to use git send-email now as Henri suggested me, to resent two
patches from the serie as replies to this e-mail. Both with included
suggestions from Paul & Henri wine-devel.
[1/4]: This is Detlef's patch from June 2008 with just the import
changed from "vfw32" to "avifil32" to work around bug 14085.

[2/4]: These are resents of last week which are cleaned up more and with
Detlef's patch on which they depend in front.
While looking at avifile, I noticed some strange behaviour. Because some
fixes may seem strange, I felt a test suite was really necessary to show
that this is really what's happening on Windows. All the tests pass on
both Windows 98 and Windows XP.
