Yes, in all my tests.

fastcall symbols are functions, never data, so no need to auto-import. 
However, all the _nm_ symbols seem to be okay.

I get broken link messages with that.  I'll try later. FWIW,
dllhelpers-0.2.4-0.2.8 all work before and after changing functions to
__fastcall (and with __fastcall C++ methods), and mixing __stdcall,
__cdecl, and __fastcall in same code.    I don't know how to mark fortran
names as fastcall.
