And.. Hmmm..

I *think* auto import of data variables may be somewhat broken (and declared
import of data variables too) if 

1) The import library is stripped with --strip-unneeded
   and/or
2) The import is from another DLL (.exe -> .dll[func] -> .dll[data])

(See msg dated 9/17/03 which seems to have been drowned.. There is a test
case in it)
