I added #if sections to use GetWindowLong if we're compiling with VC6,
and GetWindowLongPtr otherwise.

...unfortunately recent changes to capture_if_details_dlg_win32.c might
break VC6 compilation. As we move towards Win64, we seem to be moving
away from VC6. We might end up losing VC6 support, or at least requiring
the installation of a newer platform SDK.
