Let me get this straight. To use this method I would do something
like:

typedef int (__cdecl *MYPROC)(HANDLE,
int); 

MYPROC affinity;

affinity = (MYPROC *) GetProcAddress(hKernel,
"SetProcessAffinityMask");
if(affinity != NULL) (*affinity)(child, afin);

Should I get the handle for kernel32.dll through LoadLibrary (and
if so, is there a fixed path name where
I can find it), or is this library loaded always, and is there some
standard variable for its handle that
I can draw on?
