Awesome, thanks Matthew. Full credit to James Hawkins who figured out
what was tripped up the scanner anyway, I just forwarded the info on.
So there we go guys! We are down 220 bugs overnight :)

Hello Mike,
Thanks for pointing out the WideCharToMultiByte function. I
have provided back end configuration indicating it is not an error to
send in parameter #4 as negative, and that eliminated around 220
reports. We try to have a low false positive rate, but sometimes when
we misunderstand an interface like that we will see a bug report at each
invocation of the interface, fortunately most of the time, as in this
case, we can configure around it easily.
Thanks again for pointing this out to us!
The same kind of error is reported for mlang.dll, but the situation is worse
there since the length parameter is unsigned but still accepts -1 as a magic
length indicator.
