One omission in the KNOWN ISSUE #0 ("variable '<var>' can't be
auto-imported.") is that [unsigned] long long variables can't be
auto-imported, as reported here:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-09/msg00843.html

To see the problem, change global_int_var in dll-helpers-0.2.8/c to
long long and look at the assembler code for printf-ing the variable.
