"but why? No one uses these operating systems!!!"

It's still used on some later P4 builds and the like
some old video hardware only shipped W9X drivers
the engine still has very old limitations that would still keep it in the 9x gaming territory anyway (like no Unicode/UTF-8)

???Possible Solutions???

Investigating a little more into this:

ReactOS's wspiapi.h (as seen here) appears to work ffine so far. Networked play untested
I've dynamically loaded PSAPI.DLL and I haven't seen any adverse side effects from doing this and GetProcAddr'ing EnumProcesses.
