In which context did you hear about this ? In WXP, we added some support to
ensure that if you have referenced a process or thread object and want do
some operation on those objects, you could protect yourself against the
process or thread teardown. Note that just having a reference to a
process/thread object does not protect against the process or thread
teardown. This functionality is not exported to driver developers.

I was walking kernel routines. Your response answered my question;
my interest was general knowledge of something new I ran across.
Thank you.

Subject: [ntdev] [kernel32!gpSysLocHashN]
Hi, All
I have a quick question about the global variable in kernel32.dll.
whenever kernel32!CompareStringW is called, kernel32!gpSysLocHashN is
referenced at the head of it . What does this global variable manage? I
think the head of data structure is the system Locale.
I don’t think why it need to reference in CompareStringW.
Would you tell me in detail if someone knows about the reason?
Thanks,
Futoshi
