It is really not there. You will either have to build a new import library
for netapi32.dll. Look for netapi32.def in the CDK source tree (winsup/sysdef I believe)
and add a line 

NetEnumerateTrustedDomains AT 8

without any @xx stuff. If the other function names in the netapi32.def file
have preceding underscores add one also the new line.

Build the import library by executing dlltool:

dlltool -k --dllname netapi32.dll --output-lib libnetapi32.a --def netapi32.def

If the functions names in netapi32.def have preceding underscores add
the '-U' option to the dlltool command line.

It has probably been forgotten, perhaps because this function isn't documented
at least in the MSDN library.

One has to write the import definition files manually.

I think it doesn't make much sense to create a new minimal import library
for just one function. Create a new libnetapi32.a library instead.
However, you can call this function also without creating a new import library
(error checking code omitted):

typedef DWORD STDCALL (*fntype)(LPWSTR, LPWSTR *);

void foo(LPWSTR servername, LPWSTR *domains)
{
  HANDLE hNetApiDLL = LoadLibrary("netapi32.dll");
  fntype fptr = (fntype)
	GetProcAddress(hNetApiDLL, "NetEnumerateTrustedDomains");

  (*fptr)(servername, domains);
}

described above
