I don't think it will be really different than duplicating all the
work the preprocessor is doing inside the parser itself. Of course you
want to use the Wine preprocessor, not fork+exec gcc for each file.
But yes parsing all the files is of course slower than having all the
info in the .spec, there's no way around that.

All you really need is the function name, which should be the last
token before the opening '('. The only problem is if you want to find
the number of args for stdcall decoration, but we should be able to do
without it.

Well the thing is if you find a declspec you output what you think is
the function name. If you get it wrong and output 'WINAPI' or 'char*'
instead you'll notice it at build time.
