But also when I link with the DLL.  When I attempt to link I get this:

  gcc -O -Wall -shared examples.o avisynth_c.lib -o examples.dll
  examples.o(.text+0x33):examples.c: undefined reference to `avs_new_c_filter at 20'
  examples.o(.text+0x41):examples.c: undefined reference to `avs_set_to_clip at 8'

With the __declspec(dllimport):

  gcc -O -Wall -shared examples.o avisynth_c.lib -o examples.dll
  examples.o(.text+0x34):examples.c: undefined reference to `_imp__avs_new_c_filter at 20'
  examples.o(.text+0x43):examples.c: undefined reference to `_imp__avs_set_to_clip at 8'

So without special treatment mingw gcc seams to also expect the @ 
decoration.

I don't care if you consider it a "bug".  I am just reporting how it is 
done.  And the fact that it is causing me a lot of grief.
