I suggest "Windows" instead of "Win32". Some people, including some
that belong to The Powers That Be, don't like calling Windows ``a
win'', and we don't want to rewrite large portions of the manual
every time they look at our documentation ;-)

It's not recommended to use @sc on a string that involves both lower-
and upper-case letters.

The string "GetThreadSelectorEntry" is a name of a function, so it
should be in @code.

I think this description should be expanded a bit (what exceptions?
affects how?).
