Note that on the other path I referenced (if it is ever taken even, that is under #ifdef and depends not on user boxes but on how the thing is compiled) is not going to work even with DECLSPEC_HOTPATCH, it assumes alignment filler. Without checking, I am not sure if that works on Windows even.
I found DxWnd's setting to log hotpatch failures and so far I haven't seen any such errors in the log. If I notice any in the future, I will send specific patches for particular functions. I also found a "Do hook update" option that allows the "Synchronize GDI to ddraw palette" option to work in Sega Bug without crashing (see [Bug 56232 Comment 2](https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56232#c2)). Thanks again for your insight!
