I reached an interesting problem. I added buffer overflow protection to SVPV
pointer types. Win32::API's own test suite died from a buffer overflow here

I think for some reason my emails are blocked from libwin32@perl.org.
I'm seeing your emails ok - and only because I'm subscribed to
libwin32@perl.org (afaik).
