I think he merely means that some games seem to utilize the hotpatch* 
nature of Windows DLLs to hook in their own code. Not that I'd not like 
to have the full hotpatch functionality in ReactOS... ;)

(*) A nop-like instruction near the beginning of a function which can be 
replaced by a relative jump to a few bytes back where a jump to an 
alternative implementation can be included. Normally used to implement a 
patched version of the function for Windows' hotpatching functionality.

Sven
