It turns out that we have seen this plenty of times in Git for Windows'
fork, so much so that we came up with a nice helper to make this all a bit
more robust and a bit more obvious, too: the DECLARE_PROC_ADDR and
INIT_PROC_ADDR helpers in compat/win32/lazyload.h.

Maybe this would be the perfect excuse to integrate this patch into upstream
Git? 

This patch is pretty hefty already.  How about you push this capability
upstream and I take advantage of it in a later patch. :)

Deal:
