IIRC, there was no "plain Win2K", only Pro, AS, and Datacenter
(actually, I didn't remember - wikipedia told me).

So GetProcessTimes *is* available on W2k (it actually was
available in NT 3.5 according to the API documentation).

However, it is *not* available in W9x, and we decided to still
support W9x in Python 2.5. That means it must be called through
GetProcAddress still.
