Comment (by cypherpunks):

 > compiling Tor Browser with --disable-optimize seems to work even with
 the code in comment:16. So, EMET just does not like the optimized code
 mingw-w64 generates.
 It's not about mingw-w64 part of code, but specifically about GCC
 optimization for C++ code, inline of AddHook is about optimization.
