Are you sure that the current linker does not work ?
When I tried it, using the test case you supplied, but without the
patch applied, I got this:
% make
../gcc/g++ -B ../gcc/ -g -save-temps -c -o dll.o dll.cc
../gcc/g++ -B ../gcc/ -g --shared -L ../i686-pc-cygwin/newlib -L ./i686-pc-cygwin/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs dll.o -o dll.dll
../gcc/g++ -B ../gcc/ -g -save-temps -c -o client.o client.cc
../gcc/g++ -B ../gcc/ -g -o client client.o -L ./i686-pc-cygwin/newlib -L ../i686-pc-cygwin/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs -L. -ldll
Info: resolving _var by linking to __imp__var (auto-import)
Info: resolving test::var by linking to __imp___ZN4test3varE (auto-import)
Cheers
