I have a question on this patch. While integrating it into the=20=20
nx-libs.git=20repo, I realized, that it can be applied to Windows.c=20=20
twice.=20Once at the position that you provide in the patch file,=20=20
another=20(second) time around line 2895...

"""

Maybe the same patch is needed at that second position?
