Sorry, that was a wrong copy/paste when writing the email (leftover of
things I tried previously). I can confirm the multiple definition error
I have is when that line is `#  define GLIB_INLINE _GLIB_EXPORT extern
inline`, which expands to `__declspec(dllexport) extern inline`.

Right, that's what I do and it fails. I made a simplified example:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/xclaesse/inline-example

Build it with:
  meson setup builddir --cross-file cross_file_mingw64.txt
  ninja -C builddir/

And it fails with:
```
x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc  -o libfoo.dll libfoo.dll.p/foo.c.obj
libfoo.dll.p/bar.c.obj -Wl,--allow-shlib-undefined -shared -Wl,--start-
group -Wl,--out-implib=libfoo.dll.a -fstack-protector -lkernel32 -
luser32 -lgdi32 -lwinspool -lshell32 -lole32 -loleaut32 -luuid -
lcomdlg32 -ladvapi32 -Wl,--end-group
/usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld: libfoo.dll.p/bar.c.obj: in function
`g_strcmp0':
/home/xclaesse/programmation/inline-example/builddir/../foo.h:5:
multiple definition of `g_strcmp0';
libfoo.dll.p/foo.c.obj:/home/xclaesse/programmation/inline-
example/builddir/../foo.h:5: first defined here
```

Thanks for your help!
