Thank you!

I guess so, but I'm quite puzzled how the emulator is supposed
to know that it just left the x86_64 assembler code.  Magic!!!

Checking the ARM code, it might even be possible to come up with
a real solution, given this line in the first few bytes of
ntdll!#RtlGetCurrentDirectory_U:

  00000001`802b7054 db030094 bl      ntdll!#RtlpReferenceCurrentDirectory (1802b7fc0)

This seems to fetch the address of the pointer we're interested in.
It's unlikely (but not impossible) that the structure differs from the
same struct as on x86_64.

We may have a chance there, but I would feel better if I could debug my
code by myself.


Thanks,
Corinna
