Oops, missed that sorry.

Regarding those patches can you explain to me this error message:

---- c.c ----
void __attribute__((dllimport)) foo (void);
void (*f) (void) = foo;
--------------

$ i386-mingw-gcc -c c.c
c.c:2: initializer element is not constant
$

This is used in tcl 8.0.5 which does similair things.
