no, the problem is not with LoadDllFuncEx(), but with LoadDllInit()

here's (a bit formatted) fragment from autoload.ii:

HANDLE __attribute__((section(".data_cygwin_nocopy"))) secur32_handle = __null ;
  LONG __attribute__((section(".data_cygwin_nocopy"))) secur32_here = -1L;
  int   secur32_init ()
  __asm__ ("secur32_init");
  {
    return std_dll_init (  secur32_handle, "secur32.dll",   secur32_here) ;
  }
...
__asm__ (".section .data_cygwin_nocopy,\"w\"");
__asm__ ("secur32_init_holder: .long secur32_init_and_load");
__asm__ (".text");
__asm__ ("secur32_init_and_load:");
__asm__ ("movl $cygwin_dll_func_load, secur32_init_holder");
__asm__ ("call secur32_init"); ;
__asm__ ("jmp cygwin_dll_func_load"); 

so, std_dll_init is being called and when it fails to find dll, it calls
api_fatal(). 

the problem is not that some functions are not available from dll, but
dll itself is not available.
