+"""PE surface of a VB6 install: what a program imports, exports and drags in.
+
+Why this exists
+---------------
+A VB6 application is almost never one file. The executable imports only
+``MSVBVM60.DLL`` and reaches everything else (ODBC, DAO, RDO, XML, mail, sockets)
+through COM created at run time. Reading the import table therefore tells you
+what the *runtime* needs, not what the program does — and the components it really
+uses show up only as sibling DLLs/OCXs, ActiveX registrations and type libraries.
+
+Two measured traps are encoded here:
+
+* **Both thunk arrays must be walked.** In an import descriptor
+  ``OriginalFirstThunk`` and ``FirstThunk`` sit in different address ranges; naming
+  only ``OriginalFirstThunk`` leaves every ``call dword ptr [0x40xxxx]`` target
+  anonymous in the caller's disassembly. Walking both raised named call sites from
+  ~135k to ~267k on the reference target.
+* **Do not hand-roll the export table.** A hand-written export reader produced
+  ``NumberOfFunctions ≈ 761,000`` for a 1 MB OCX; ``pefile`` read the same file as
+  four standard COM registration exports. Use :func:`exports` here (bounded and
+  validated) or ``pefile`` — never a quick struct.unpack.
+
+Nothing in this module needs a third-party package.
