How to get gateway address using GetAdaptersAddresses?

The gateway address is clearly visible in the results returned by
GetAdaptersInfo.

However the spec says:

"Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP: Use the GetAdaptersAddresses function
instead of GetAdaptersInfo."

Where in what is returned by GetAdaptersAddresses is the gateway address?
What goes wrong if I ignore this instruction and use GetAdaptersInfo?
