I was searching on MSDN, but that one obviously states __stdcall. I
think I was somehow falsely reinforced in thinking is is __cdecl because
my (buggy) code does not crash. But actually it doesn't crash just
because the windows function calls the callback as its last action and
then uses EBP to restore the stack pointer...

Many apologies for the confusion!
