And you can continue to do that, and you shouldn't be troubled by any
errors.

And now to return to on-topic discussions, it looks to me like EXTERN in
some places was only used for the extern "C" part, but got
__declspec(dllexport) by accident.  See tclWinProcs declared in
win/tclWinInt.h:

EXTERN TclWinProcs *tclWinProcs;

I see the need for 'extern "C"', but not __declspec(dllexport)
