Nothing strange: caml_local_roots is a variable (not a function) so it
exported differently in case of byte/native code Ocaml runtime
(dynamic/static library respectively). So you should compile your C
source files with  different compiler options, not just copy .obj
files as the library author does. In other words, INSTALL_WIN32.bat is
broken (some time ago I also run into that). Here are my changes
(.diff is attached):

- Fix compilation problems
- Use ODBC2
- DLL support for the byte code

- Dmitry Bely

P.S. In fact I finally wrote a couple-line Omakefile and forgot about
all that problems :)
