dllimport'd virtual function members aren't correctly handled
currently -- the compiler chokes when it tries to generate the vtable.
That's not a disaster, because unlike data, functions don't have to be
declared dllimport for them to be correctly imported.

I posted a workaround patch for this to the list earlier, and some
others with more gcc internals clue than myself are working on a
cleaner and more efficient solution.
