You need to add -no-undefined to the libtool options.  Under Windows, 
the symbols must be fully resolved when the DLL is created.  That 
means you must also supply all of the libraries that your DLL depends 
on.  Libtool adds an additional restriction that all of the libraries 
that your DLL depends on must also be DLLs (with possible exception of 
the compiler's own libraries).
