It is difficult to say. There are no standard rules for DLL handling,
and behavior varies not only from compiler to compiler, but also from
OS to OS.
The C++ committee is attempting to address this situation, so there is
hope that the future will be brighter. For now I recommend the
generous use of #ifdef . ;-(
