Adding -XX has no effect. Neither has adding CREATESMART=1 and LINKSMART=1 to the svn build (which 
adds -CX and -XX). I am testing this with a win32 targeted crosscompiler on i386-darwin. However, 
Marco mentioned that he could reproduce the problem on native win32. So, this is unlikely a fault 
in my svn build setup.
