There you go. Above code was compiled with MS VisualStudio, and is
not usable by code compiled with g++.

The names are always mangled in C++, except for 'extern "C"' functions.
More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

The problem isn't that they are mangled; it's that they are mangled
*differently* by different compilers (on purpose).

You *have* to use Microsoft compilers for that.
Note that the free VisualStudio Express:
