Doing all the work necessary (and doing it well) for 'export' to be 
properly implemented really does seem like an awful lot of work for just 
'export'.  But if it was not just for C++'s 'export', but something that 
was more generally useful for various languages...

Now, where would be the right place for me to post my vision of how 
compilers, assemblers and linkers for the future might be?
