GetProcAddress is a call that dynamically loads a dll and gets you a
pointer to the named entry point.  SetConsoleCommandHistoryMode looks
like an undocumented function, and subject to anything that the folks in
Redmond choose to do to it.  I'm guessing that it disappeared in Vista.

Subject: Error in Vista

When creating a ruby script (using Watir) on XP then using
rubyscript2exe.rb to create it as an EXE, I receive the following error
on the Vista machine:
