Comment(by NotFound):

 After last whiteknight fixes the tests using atoi, atol and other C
 library symbols still fails in my XP box. After some testing I think the
 problem is due to the libc used by Strawberry/mingw is statically linked
 and its symbols not exported for external linkage.

 The simple solution I see is: delete that tests and document that getting
 functions from the libc via dlsym is platform dependant, not granted to
 work.
