Try compile it with kernel32.def and msvcrt.def (because tcc'll need
stuff like fopen, strcpy...). You'll get that defs
when using tiny_impdef.
I compiled tcc by tcc by following not good way:

./tcc -o"tcc_new.exe" -I"win32/include" -I"win32/include/winapi" tcc.c 
obj/crt1.o obj/libtcc1.o
obj/chkstk.o def/kernel32.def

Of course, you must at first get these objs and defs.
