Finally, I found the real cause why it did not work with gcc. Of
course you were right -- it's because I compiled the code as c++ code.
I just did not see why that happened. It was due to a bug in the CMake
configuration. WIN32 is not the right CMake test for MSVC IDE since
WIN32 is also set under Cygwin. Well, and the C++ compilation should
be enabled on MSVC only.

It's all in the cmake_integration branch and I also reverted (again)
the scope stuff since it is only required when somebody really wants
to compile the library as c++ code.
