The entirety of the Windows API modules (headers in C) and

Public domain? PSDK is not public domain. Isn't "Microsoft &
public domain" an oxymoron?
The files in the Windows API bindings project are translations
from the MinGW headers, which were created based on the
documentation (which explains the occasional errors). The MinGW
headers are public domain. Considering that MinGW is not an
obscure project, I think we're on safe legal ground here.
