   That doesn't answer my question.   
      
   I think Microsoft either have a secret compiler   
   option, or they are using small assembler functions   
   with a jmp, ie   
      
   WriteFile@20:   
   jmp _WriteFile@20   
      
   Because it's not enough to just have a .def file to   
   remap names - you need to get the DLL right.
