This problem is *NOT* limited to Windows 2K - the example program provided
also fails on Windows NT 4.0 built with V2.03

Since lfn=n made a difference on w2k testing, and we could not figure
out how that would cause anything different, I will hypothesize that
there is some register in the regs structure we are passing that 
fouls up one of these calls.  The random value somehow fouls up NT?
