The problem is it can't find the type definition of NTSTATUS. It is
defined in the PSDK in several places, but none of the files is included
by winnt.h, windows.h or friends. Basically, it's defined in lmaccess.h,
ntsecapi.h, subauth.h, wincred.h and winternl.h. I think latter makes
most sense considering that ntsecapi.h mostly contains LSA stuff.
