Description

Importing a label with the stdcall calling convention fails to remember the stdcall attribute and add the appropriate '@n' suffix to the label on Windows. e.g. 

foreign import stdcall "&foo" foo :: FunPtr (CInt -> IO ())

should result in a reference to "foo@4", but doesn't. This breaks the Win32 library, which does something like this for genericWndProc in Graphics/Win32/Window.hsc.

Somewhat related to to #1288 .
