The post I sent was actually to encourage the OP to use the patch
tracker system in future.   I cc'd to dvlpr list just to say that it
had been fixed.

IsProcessorFeaturePresent() is already declared in winbase.h. However,
it is not protected by any WINVER or _WIN32_WINNT guard.  In fact,
winbase.h may have a lot of NT4 or above declarations which probably
should be protected to get compile time rather than runtime errors.
