I tried the latest snapshot gnutls-20080415.tar.gz and the ".def issue" 
is disappeared. But the error

is still present.

In the meantime I recompiled libgcrypt using

./configure --disable-shared --disable-asm --enable-random=w32 
--disable-dev-random

Do you think that the "random" options are correct to use the library in 
a Windows environment (not using MinGW)?

Thx
