I'm not convinced this actually did the trick.  I rebuilt libXpm-noX 
(which uses a def file with 'skipped' numbers -- since I want to keep 
the ordinals the same between the -X and the -noX versions, but the 
-noX is missing a few functions).

However, neither the libXpm-noX dll built using the OLD linker, or 
the one built using the NEW linker, obey the ordinals specified in 
the .def file. 

Because of this, installing the new dll breaks existing apps that 
depend on the old one. (I know that *fixing* this problem so that 
dlls slavishly follow the def file will *also* break existing apps 
since the old dll used the wrong ordinals too.  However, I'd rather 
break things because the new version is *right*, instead of merely 
wrong in a different way)
