Is it really ld that does this? I thought the compiler made all the
name mangling decisions.

Was this decision made consciously by gcc? Maybe it is just a bug and
we should also prefix `_' to stdcall methods. Can you find out?
In any case it looks like we'll need more Windows-specific code in the
JNI lookup.
