I sort of understand what your saying, I just have no idea how to do 
it. If you
know of any resources I could read I would get it done.

What I don't understand is why I'm getting this problem on windows when trying
to compile against libraries compiled on linux for windows. So to me it sounds
like windows doesn't support what mingw put into the libraries for references.
As such, shouldn't I need to make mingw not link against these exports, as
windows doesn't expect them?

Thoughts?
