Well, you may at least want to validate that your dwOffsets are within
cbSize?

I had my tests under Windows and I was able to put all kinds of bogus
values into cbSize, cbPerElementSize and cbStructureSize, without any
visible effect on the function output.
So I wanted to leave it that way for compatibility.

Would it be possible that windows somewhat fix them automagically?

As I said in the commit message, I didn't need these parameters at all
for the functionality I observed through black-box testing. Furthermore,
the function only modifies the given structure, not the parameters, so
there is no way to return "fixed" values for them.
