This Wine critical section tracking patch is based on a patch Jeremy White (of
CodeWeavers) wrote for the Corel branch back in February. I have warped and extended
if for the current WineHq head
revision.
The WineHQ head revision seems to use a LOT more critsects than the current Corel
branch I had to boost the number of statically allocated slots by 100 to track
WordPerfect properly.
I stuck a few of the RegisterDebugptr() calls in somewhat arbitrary places when I
could not find a call to InitializeCriticalSection() for some critsects (e.g.
X11Drv!). They seem to be the right
places for now.
The original patch still exists in the Corel branch because it is not doing us any
harm. I'm copying this message to .devel because critsect developers my find this as
useful as we did.
