We're not linking plugins with a libethereal.lib file, so plugins don't 
import routines from libethereal.dll - we still need the plugin API 
table, so adding them to the libethereal.def will not, as far as I know, 
be enough.

Is it time for us to *require* that libethereal be built as a DLL on 
Windows, to link plugins with libethereal on Windows, and to get rid of 
the plugin API table?
