most likely nothing, probably a false positive

The file may just be using a packer, which often set of lazy Anti virus checkers.

All my files are packed [PECompact2 or UPX], this may trigger some false positive with some AV software, specially with heuristics enabled.
Small + packed = virus ...

Warnings containing a ".gen" are definitely Heuristics Warnings.

Depending on Product and Heuristics level, some Antivirus Software is quite trigger-happy.

e.g. some will even mock a Minigame, when you include a JPG image via IncludeBinary.

You could report this False Positive to your AV Company to enable them to set "displaysystemmetrics.exe" on their greenlist.
