Sure, will do :-)

Hm, I think this actually should be bound to
$(ENABLE_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS), but ulitmately we should build
warning-free, if possible. Of course this can be done later.

Yes, if you check cli_ure/source/native/msvc.map , you will note that it
does not define any global symbol.

Hm, does the linker need at least one exported symbol to create the .lib
file? I need to check how is this done in dmake...
