It does, if you show it the prototypes:

  $ echo '#define _WIN32_WINNT  0x0A00' > foo.h
  $ echo '#include <windows.h>' >> foo.h
  $ alias pexports=3D'pexports -p ~/mingw32/bin/mingw32-cpp'
  $ pexports -h ./foo.h $WINDRIVE/Windows/System32/kernel32.dll
  LIBRARY "KERNEL32.dll"
  EXPORTS
  AcquireSRWLockExclusive@4 DATA
  AcquireSRWLockShared@4 DATA
  ActivateActCtx@8
  ActivateActCtxWorker
  AddAtomA@4
  AddAtomW@4
  AddConsoleAliasA@12
  AddConsoleAliasW@12
  ...

Of course, this is only effective for functions for which a prototype is
provided, in the set of header files passed through the "-h" argument,
and any others which this subsequently includes.
