Yes, I use the MS headers with both GNU-Win32 and mingw32. They in fact need
some changes. But most of them are covered by the patch file that comes
with the RSXNT package. What remains to do is to change some definitions
in shellobj.h (or whatever it is called) and some other files included by this
one. Personally, I think it's worth the effort, because you get some nice
additional features like DDE, ...


Best wishes,
