Yeah. These have a, after macro expansion, 'extern __declspec 
(dllimport)' specifier in "chicken.h'. However, in "runtime.c" there  
is no corresponding '__declspec(dllexport)' for the declarations of  
the above exported symbols.

This is a static build, yes? Perhaps defining 'C_NO_PIC_NO_DLL' would  
help. I notice the "vcbuild.bat" does this.
