I tried updating WIDL to Wine-HEAD, however there is a problem with binding (rpcss gets a usermode exception due to failure in rpcrt4, missing a binding handle). I haven't got time to solve this yet, but I'll try to merge all changes to the headers I have made to simplify Eric's work.

Since revisions 37313-37314 i observe repetitive problems with WIDL. Every time WIDL is called by our BE, it throws an exception:

Reverting revisions 37313 and 37314 fixes this problem. Apart from me, this issue been noted by dreimer, encoded and Christoph_vW. Dunno about Christoph, but me, dreimer and encoded are using Vista/2008. I couldnt replicate this issue on XP/2003 though.
