dll create problem with gcc configured with arm-pe

[longchuan]

Hello Nick:
Many thanks. 
I think that is what it should be, create dll with -shared, with
relocation information and
loaded at a suitable address at run-time.

I haven't test the new dll( the whole environment is not running yet),
but with objdump,
I compared this dll with the one mingw32 gcc generated, should be the
same.

If i have any problems about the patch, i will contact you ASAP.

regards,
wreckor
