__declspec(dllimport) int foo ();

struct S
{
  friend __declspec(dllimport) int foo ();
};


This code gives me the following warning:
dllexport_test.cxx:5: warning: 'int foo()' redeclared without dllimport attribute: previous dllimport ignored

I think it is bogus. I the code clearly declares the same thing in the friend declaration.
