+    linker will remove the x86 target library from your generated executable
+    or shared library because there are no references to it. You can force the
+    linker to include these references by using 
+    "/INCLUDE:_X86TargetMachineModule" when linking. In Visual Studio IDE, this 
+    can be added in Project Properties->Linker->Input->Force Symbol References.
