Out-of-line definitions for an imported class is not allowed because it
makes no sense. However, it's a bug in gcc since it should issue an error
instead of crashing! I'm working on that.

MSVC will issue a warning and turn the linkage into "dllexport" when it 
sees the definition, which is bogus. It's an error, and ignoring that
can cause hard-to-track-down errors in your code.
