So it appears the problem is that doing a
(HWND).read_int

isn't allowed by windows at all...

a HANDLE maybe is like a pointer into some deep dark internal
(unreadable, unwritable) windows memory structure.

It's a "special" pointer.  It's not what it points to that matters,
but rather that you are pointing to the "right" location.

As a work around you can specify long's for HWND and it works great.
Either that or at least don't try to copy them :)

The only way to copy them (if you're using pointers) is like

new_pointer = FFI::Pointer.new (Top.GetForegroundWindow.address)

Thanks for your patience.
