While it should be purely academic now, the issue might have been a 
failure to mark pGVPN as WINAPI (IOW __stdcall on x86):

-  BOOL (*pGVPN)(LPCTSTR, LPTSTR, DWORD);
+  BOOL (WINAPI *pGVPN)(LPCTSTR, LPTSTR, DWORD);

Something must have changed in gcc's optimization that this triggered; 
it certainly wasn't an issue when the code was first introduced.

Thanks for tracking this down; gamin-0.1.10-15 uses more modern features 
to test for FAT that weren't available back in 2006.
