Right, that's my point - you should assert instead of trapping it, so that instances of this bad call are found and the code fixed.  Your changes are just suppressing the problem, rather than solving it.

The assert should happen before you get the BSOD with verifier, and you will end up fixing all code paths that might call the function with a size of zero, thus removing the need for your ExSafe wrapper functions.
