Ulrich Eckhardt <eckhardt at satorlaser.com> added the comment:

I do have an issue with the patch's startup code. The prototype for 
the thread entry should be "DWORD WINAPI function(PVOID);". The 
important distinction is the WINAPI part, which resolves to __stdcall 
but doesn't have to. I know that some CE targets actually #define 
__cdecl __stdcall or vice versa, but using WINAPI always works. I'd 
then also change the comment to "...to adapt between our function 
signature and the one used by _createthreadex", as the internally used 
one doesn't mention __cdecl.
