There's a new way to build a plugin for Windows which uses the attached
plugin library instead of linking to the breve binary directly.

g++ -I.. -shared -o c++Sample_plugin.o c++Sample.cpp ./plugin.a



I'm not sure why the original method isn't working, but give this new
library a try.  Let me know if the attachment doesn't come through.
