Hi Werner,

I have run into some (not entirely unexpected) trouble with my changes 
to support the latest gfortran version under MinGW and the recent
visibility changes: gcc/gfortran works, but MSVC/CVF is giving trouble
on bare Windows.

I am going to solve these issues first - nothing really profound, luckily,
and then I will turn my attention to the dynamic drivers.

Regards,

Arjen
