Thanks for looking into this.

I don't include patches without knowing the name of the author.  If you
are scared you can mail me directly.

About this part:

        #ifdef _WIN32
                    int argc;
                    char *argv[] = {"gvim.exe"};
                    NtInitialize(&argc, (char***)&argv);
        #endif

I think "argc" should be set to 1.  Typecasting should not be needed for
argv.  How about this instead:

        #ifdef _WIN32
                    int argc = 1;
                    char *argv[] = {"gvim.exe"};
                    NtInitialize(&argc, &argv);
        #endif
