	/* Hello!
	 * This thing looks trivial, right? Guess again :-)
	 * Observe:
	 * 1) Because of the way plugins are done within the scummvm core
	 *    (read: slightly dirty) it is required that the plugins
	 *    (built as dlls in win32 systems) have to "backlink" into the
	 *    main executable. More specifically, the dlls have to call
	 *    functions from the (separately built) main module.
	 *    This means trouble for wince, as the dynamic linker does not
	 *    resolve imported symbols to a dll from an executable.
	 * 2) But wait! DLLs can have any way of importing/exporting symbols
	 *    between them. Hmmm...
	 * 
	 * Right! The solution is thus: We build everything as a dll. This means
	 * the individual engines (plugins) and also the scummvm core application.
	 * It is in fact "The sub-DLL solution" described over at edll
	 * (ref. http://edll.sourceforge.net/).
	 *
	 * The last thing to watch out for is that in a plugin build, we already
	 * supply a WinMain function (this one, right here) which supersedes
	 * SDL's one. So we need to do the startup things SDL does in scummvm
	 * before running SDL_main.
	 *
	 * All this leaves us, for this source file, to do this crummy little... */
