Here is an updated patch. Compared to the last one, I moved the
linking of safe-ctype.o and lbasename.o to configure.srv instead
of Makefile.in::OBS, so only Windows builds are affected. I also
copy/pasted the comment from windows-nat.c to document the new function.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

	* Makefile.in (safe-ctype.o, lbasename.o): New rules.
	* configure.srv: Add safe-ctype.o and lbasename.o to srv_tgtobj
	for all targets that use win32-low.c.
	* win32-low.c (win32_ensure_ntdll_loaded): New function.
	(do_initial_child_stuff): Add call to win32_ensure_ntdll_loaded.

I tested the patch on both x86_64-windows and also x86-windows.
OK to commit this version? (I can take care of checking in your patch)

Thank you,
