I don't know much about this, other than you should prefix function
declarations with G_MODULE_EXPORT, which expands on Windows to the
necessary declspec(dllexport), or whatever it was to mark functions for
export in a DLL.  If you need separate code for the platforms, you can
use the G_OS_WIN32 and G_PLATFORM_WIN32 preprocessor defines.  See the
GLib documentation for the difference between these two macros, I don't
remember the details.

Actually, no.  I realize now that the wording of my reply was ambiguous.
I was referring to the first part of question 2:

Of this question, I only understood the part in parentheses, and that's
the part I answered to.
