Hi all; thanks for the note on the extra __imp that should not be there,
 Gerhard;
I've modified Makefile.DLLs to contain the appropriate line, minus the IMP_MACRO;
the 5th echo also needs modification, and i indirect though reent_data to 
get the appropriate type:

Makefile.DLLs now echoes  the following:

echo '#include <stdio.h>'                               > dll_init.c
echo 'extern struct _reent *_impure_ptr;'               >> dll_init.c
echo 'extern __declspec(dllimport) struct _reent reent_data;'           
>> dll_init.c
echo '__attribute__((stdcall))'                         >> dll_init.c
echo 'int dll_entry(int handle, int reason, void *ptr)' >> dll_init.c
echo '{ _impure_ptr=&reent_data; return 1; }'   >> dll_init.c

this allows me to get much further;
now i get to building the dynamic version of gp... and almost make it... 
except there's no rule in the makefile for highlvl-dyn.o, whatnow-dyn.o;
i create appropriate rules for the makefile:

highlvl-dyn.o: .headers libpari_dll.h libpari_globals.h libpari.dll 
	$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(DYNFLAGS) -o highlvl-dyn.o ../src/gp/highlvl.c
whatnow-dyn.o: .headers libpari_dll.h libpari_globals.h libpari.dll 
	$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(DYNFLAGS) -o whatnow-dyn.o ../src/gp/whatnow.c

this allows gp-dyn.exe to compile!

before i get to euphoric about this i try ./gp-dyn.exe:
i append the result for your amusement:

$ ./gp-dyn.exe
      0 [main] gp-dyn 403 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
  26266 [main] gp-dyn 403 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to gp-dyn.exe.stackdump
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

oh well. looks like the stage Karim got to?
any ideas anybody?
i suspect this has something to do with dll_init.c.
