Well, this (almost certainly) fixes the link failure on OS X, but there is 
still a problem: There's still only one TIEXPORT macro, controlled by all for 
TI*_EXPORT defines. This means that where e.g. libticalcs2 uses a function 
from libticables2, that function is declared as dllexport instead of 
dllimport. I wonder how and why this works, because it is clearly wrong. 
There needs to be a different export macro for each library, i.e.:
#ifdef TICABLES_EXPORT
#define TICABLESEXPORT __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define TICABLESEXPORT __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
and then use TICABLESEXPORT instead of TIEXPORT throughout libticables2 (yes, 
this needs a global replace in each library).
Also, where are these TI*_EXPORT defined? In the M$VC projects only? These 
need to be defined from configure.ac too!
Taking this into account, it is a miracle that this works at all on Win32.
