Did I really say that? I have absolutely no evidence
one way or the other to back that up. What I do
understand to be true is that .dlls compiled by gcc
(note, gcc, not g++) should be able to be read by MSVC
compiled code but can't because they mess up the entry
point to the .dll.

(As I understand it, that's the rdata fix that Enrico
has posted and which I also understand is in the scons
files.)

As for the C++ ABI-thingie: I re-iterate, I have no
idea one way or the other. Ask on the MinGW list
perhaps?

PS. Note that I'm prefacing all these statements with
"as I understand it". Caveat emptor...
