I'm not sure here, but I think that this is not possible because
different windows compilers use different call methods for that, so not
all dlls would be binary compatible.

I don't see how this can be any better than giving the two `int*'s. It
has the same drawback (ugly to return things through pointer
parameters), plus the user has to put his keys in a special struct
rather than in whatever format he wants.
