   That's strange. It sounds like you are simply calling the functions
but I thought you were using GetProcAddress to get a function pointer
and then using that function pointer to call each function you imported
from the dll. You should not have any undefined symbol when doing that.
   It's not C++? (C++ makes things more intractable because each virtual
function table is a hidden import of a non function symbol.)
   Also you should be warned of any undefined symbol at link
time. Didn't you get such warnings? What did they say?
