Nope, Windows cannot export symbols from an exe.  Some flavours of Unix can,
but not Windows.

Certainly I would prefer the dll approach; we need to define the naming of
the DLL, so all modules link against the same thing. It is not really
important what it is (lua.dll is probably fine), as long as it is well
defined.
