New submission from Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org>:

On Windows, the initfunc of a C extension is exported twice, as
seen here:

test_distutils
xxmodule.c
xxmodule.obj : warning LNK4197: export 'initxx' specified multiple times; using 
first specification


First export: pyport.h: #define PyMODINIT_FUNC __declspec(dllexport) void

Second export: Specified on the command line with /EXPORT

The code responsible for adding the initfunc name to ext.export_symbols
is in build_ext.py:get_export_symbols. I'm not sure if it could be
removed, since older extensions might not use PyMODINIT_FUNC.

If it can't be removed, perhaps PyMODINIT_FUNC could be specified
simply as void.
