It's a parameter count (x4) for STDCALL functions. Why x4 I have no idea... As per your backsearches in the list, I've sorted this when linking to an egcs DLL from VC++ by putting EXPORTS entries like: Exec=Exec@4 in my DLL .def file. I haven't (yet) found a way of direct linking VC++ DLL entries into my egcs code, but a combination of LoadLibrary() and calls to ImportProc() does what I need.
