Sorry for this, i just found something in the mailing list archives...
We need "__declspec(dllimport|dllexport)" in front of variables.

But another question is, if it is possible to link against the dll itself
or is it really neccessary to build the apropiate link library via
"dlltool --output-lib" ?
Maybe it is also possible to create a dll directly by gcc, thus we do not
need "dllwrap" and "dlltool --export-all --def" ?

Thanks in advance...

Stefan.
