Undefined reference error upon building on Windows

[MoC]

When I try to build Parrot on Windows XP with MinGW GCC 4.4 + latest binutils, etc. and Perl 5.10, mingw32-make exits with undefined reference errors as stated in the attached error log.

After running Configure.pl include/parrot/config.h includes the following directives:

#if defined(__cplusplus)
#[...]
#define PARROT_DYNEXT_EXPORT extern "C" __attribute__ ((visibility("default")))
#else
#[...]
#define PARROT_DYNEXT_EXPORT __attribute__ ((visibility("default")))
#endif

If I replace __attribute__ ((visibility("default"))) with __declspec(dllexport) it will compile just fine. mingw32-make smoke gives the following results:  http://smolder.plusthree.com/app/public_projects/report_details/24420. ( http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility provides more information about this issue, though I'm still confused as it looks like those two statements should be equivalent?)

Since I'm almost a complete Parrot newbie I can't exactly tell if the 3 failures are related to my change as I don't know (yet) if the tests make use of any routines defined within dynlexpad.c. If I should provide more information please let me know, as said before I don't really comprehend Parrots structure yet and don't know wether there is a way to get more sufficient logs.

Point of information: There was some discussion of __attribute__ ((visibility("default"))) in  as-yet-unresolved RT #62010.
