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.

I've worked this out now.


w32api is decorating the problem symbols with __declspec(dllimport).
Fortunately, it is doing so in a #define-controllable manner. I will be committing a suitable workaround to setup
shortly.
