Hello Alex,

Thank you for your review.

Here's the updated webrev:

Please see my comments inline.

I updated the comment above DCList::RemoveDC to take into account the 
additional HWND parameter.

GetHWnd() cannot return NULL in WndProc. No NULL-check is necessary.

It's impossible to write a regression test because the failure could be 
caught only from the native AWT code, no user code could detect it. 
Additionally, the time it takes to reproduce the issue is indefinite.
