I'm using the same version of gcc as Chris J.  I just reverted to
binutils-20020629 and rebuilt the dll, it works fine now.  I then upgraded
back to binutils-20020630 and it broke the dll when building from a clean
build dir.  Dunno what's going on though, I'll look into it some more
tommorrow.

Cheers,
Nicholas
