building ntdll on cygwin

I've been trying to build ntdll and various other dlls (I'm actually 
interested in gdi
and x11drv) for cygwin as well.
I tried building ntdll with the latest CVS which includes Alexandre's 
patch from below.
However I still get lots of errors saying
 variable '_wine_ldt_copy' can't be auto-imported. Please read the ld 
--enable-auto-import docs for details
There are a few recommendations in the ld man page about how to avoid this;
either by declaring the variable as __declspec(dllimport) or using a 
pointer to it instead.
Has anyone else solved this problem, as I don't want to go through lots 
of the code doing
something someone else has done? Or am I missing the point?
