So then the question becomes: what does the spec mean? That the 
__stdcall convention should be used, or that the function name should be 
explicitly exported under a non __stdcall-convention name? Neither 
behavior seems clearly written out, so this is left to an implicit 
interpretation of what that "usually" means..?

How do you mean?

Yes.

I think the correct solution here is 2.

(I assume you mean dbgsysFindLibraryEntry; there is a dbgsysBuildFunName 
as well but it appears to be dead code.)

The dbgsysFindLibraryEntry does not need to work with an arbitrary 
function. It's implemented in jdk.jdwp.agent, for the sole reason of 
locating the jdwpTransport_OnLoad function.

In general, I assume this to hold true. If you don't know the signature 
of the function you want to call, you're screwed anyway, regardless of 
calling convention.
