Yeah. There is an annoying limitation whereby libtool fails on both Windows 
and MacOS if an exported function is not defined. Since vlc_poll() makes sense 
and exists only on Windows and OS/2, this breaks. On Linux, this works fine 
though.

The problem could be hacked around by inlining vlc_poll(). A more general 
solution would involve (partly) different symbols list per operating systems.
