"A picture is worth a thousand words." But since we don't have any
pictures in our code (not even real ASCII art), maybe an example will
help. Take a look at
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/subversion/libsvn_client/simple_providers.c
search for "WIN32", and read from there. I wrote that bit myself, and I
guarantee the style is as orthodox as it gets. :)
