Just to add on to what Dave mentioned, please submit a patch (using
the publicly available information via the msdn links Dave provided)
to the MinGW patch tracker
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=2435&atid=302435).  The
w32api package is maintained by the MinGW project.

Thank you,

Chris
