You need to with MS Compilers as well.  MS defines it for
you and you will use functions not supported by Win98 say
unaware.  With MinGW you need to think about the minimum
system requirement.

Oops, I finally found my mistake... 

#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500, I do not know that MinGW
requires that (most strict than MSVC, that's a good thing).
Sorry guys !

I'm currently on XP with SP2, and have this error at
link-time (works fine on MSVC).

MinGW's output is :
(cc warning) main.c:381: warning: implicit declaration of
function `OpenThread'
(ld error) main.c:381: undefined reference to `OpenThread'

So, I think that is a MinGW problem, and report it. Am I wrong ?

Have a closer look. 
As the MSDN referenced says, it requires WinMe or XP or 
higher.
