Comment:

 Thanks for the report.

 It seems we don't quite deal correctly with symbols at the start of a
 section. We incorrectly think they're undefined because their addresses
 are 0.

 8.0.2 would alleviate this somewhat as it'll have import library support,
 so it would like against the DLL in that case.
