I'm a bit late catching up with this thread.  No one has mentioned the code in
ld/pe-dll.c, function pe_implied_import_dll (filename) which extract def file
from dll.  Is that what you are trying to do?

A gotcha with this is that some exported names in dll are aliases, the prime
culprit being stdcall names.
