I have not tried to build it with gcc-3.3.3, could someone with this
version handy build an executable and send it to me, please?


Source file 1: ==> testdll.cpp <==
    #include <string>
    std::string test() { return std::string(); }

Source file 2: ==> main.cpp <==
    #include <string>
    std::string test();

    int main() {
        puts("hello");
        test();
        puts("goodbye");
        return 0;
    }


Commands I used:

$ g++ -Wall -c testdll.cpp

$ g++ -Wall -c main.cpp

$ g++ -shared -o mydll.dll -Wl,--out-implib=libmydll.dll.a \
   -Wl,--export-all-symbols -Wl,--enable-auto-import \
   -Wl,--whole-archive dll.o  -Wl,--no-whole-archive
Creating library file: libmydll.dll.a

$ g++ -o mymain main.o mydll.dll
