Thank you for the binaries!

I tested them with egcs 1.1.2 and gcc 2.95 but the result is the same.

It may be either my DEF files are wrong, or ld does not see the forwarded 
symbols.

In short, I have something like the following

IMPORTS
RtlReallocateHeap@16=NTDLL.RtlReAllocateHeap
EXPORTS
HeapReAlloc=RtlReallocateHeap@16

After understanding that STDCALL name decoration applies also to imported 
symbols and aliases' origins, I did get no more the ld error message 
"unresolved HeapReAlloc@16". But now I get a new message: "unresolved 
RtlReallocateHeap@16" (and I link with ntdll.a...).

Well, the DEF syntax seems correct now (I have a doubt about alising in the 
IMPORTS section), but I can not understand what's missing during linking. 
Yes some more experimenting is needed, since may be simply a mistake by me 
(also tested linking with the same exports object for the library I am 
building).
