The "-no-undefined" option is not actually Win32 specific.  IBM's AIX 
has build configurations which benefit from it.

Also, "-no-undefined" does not indicate if the library has undefined 
symbols (many DLLs have undefined symbols).  It indicates that the 
build configuration has agreed to supply any additional dependency 
libraries if there otherwise would be undefined symbols.
