w32api 3.1 causes mysterious multiple definition errors

["Max Bowsher" <maxb at ukf dot net>]

When compiling setup.exe, I get the following errors:

/usr/lib/w32api/libadvapi32.a(dspes00177.o)(.text+0x0): multiple definition 
of `_FreeSid@4'
autoload.o(.data+0x16b):autoload.c:83: first defined here
/usr/lib/w32api/libadvapi32.a(dspes00026.o)(.text+0x0): multiple definition 
of `_AllocateAndInitializeSid@44'
autoload.o(.data+0x149):autoload.c:83: first defined here
/usr/lib/w32api/libadvapi32.a(dspes00253.o)(.text+0x0): multiple definition 
of `_InitializeAcl@12'
autoload.o(.data+0x17c):autoload.c:83: first defined here
/usr/lib/w32api/libadvapi32.a(dspes00013.o)(.text+0x0): multiple definition 
of `_AddAccessAllowedAce@16'
autoload.o(.data+0x12c):autoload.c:83: first defined here
/usr/lib/w32api/libadvapi32.a(dspes00357.o)(.text+0x0): multiple definition

/usr/lib/w32api/libadvapi32.a(dspes00479.o)(.text+0x0): multiple definition 
of `_SetTokenInformation@16'
autoload.o(.data+0x1ad):autoload.c:83: first defined here

They disappear if I roll w32api back to 2.5 and do a clean rebuild of 
setup.exe

The extremely odd thing is that there are other advapi32 symbols used in the 
exactly the same way in the same file, which don't provoke similar errors.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Max.
