Good point; the globals are not listed in the 3.5 SDK, which means it is
hard to know where the global variables were so you can hack them. (Which
after all was the point: system globals are off limits for any app that
expects to keep working.)
For expediency, use a 3.1 sdk and create a tiny app that finds the location
of NeedNullTickCount. Then make a pointer in your real app, set it to be
the absolute reference to that global location, and make sure you only
follow that pointer if <= 3.5!
I bet the location will be between 0x180 and 0x200 or so.
