I am not very knowledgable in windows, but maybe libtool 
may help solving that issue more simply since there is this in 
libtool info manual:

    If symbols from your _executable_ are needed to satisfy unresolved
 references in a library you want to dlopen you will have to use the flag
 `-export-dynamic'.  You should use `-export-dynamic' while linking the
 executable that calls dlopen:

     burger$ libtool --mode=link gcc -export-dynamic -o hell-dlopener main.o
     burger$

It looks like it could solve the issue you are having.

Also you could use libltdl to abstract from the platform.

And of course I'll try to do my best to help ;)
