I think you're on the right track here.  You may want to check to make
sure that the generated file was regenerated and that winuser.h is the
file being included.  If that's the case, it's probably worth looking at
winuser.h to see why POINT isn't defined; maybe there's an #ifdef.  You
could also try including windows.h, which is the usual way to bring in
the win32 api definitions but _might_ cause other problems.
