Here are patches for clang and llvm which should solve the registration 
problem. I tested them on win7 VS2010 without dll and the test are ok 
[1]. Turn out there was only 3 registries, so very small code change. On 
linux, there may be some more, I didn't check. Also these patch are not 
commit quality (line length, CRLF, comment/placement of the code). 
However, they should solve your problem. Let me know if you still have 
undefined or duplicated symbol when using your dll.

Thank you for tackling the dll problem on windows and hopping this make 
it into trunk sometime soon.

[1] I have 3 llvm test failling and 1 clang test but it was before I 
made any change
