Leading underscore in export names.

Hi,
I have a function declared like this:
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) void __stdcall foo()
{
}
When I build this into a DLL using the Visual C++ compiler (cl.exe),
the exported name is:
_foo@0
but when I build it using the GNU C++ compiler (g++), the exported
name is:
foo@0
Which one is correct? I have read that the stdcall convention should
prepend an underscore to exported names - should the extern "C"
qualifier remove it?
Regards,
Ben.
