Proposed patch fixing this problem for us

We already use this patch for more than a year and it fixes the problem for us.


On the other hand, it also disables the "export everything" feature if someone
is building a DLL and pe_dll_export_everything is 0.
This is no problem for us as all our DLLs are supplied with a .def file (and in
fact, this is IMO the only correct way to go).

Nevertheless, some people might rely on this LD-specific behaviour (Microsoft's
linker doesn't provide such an "export everything" feature afaik).
Still, it should be possible for them to enable pe_dll_export_everything, so
that they get their stuff working like before.
