I think I got something:
$ cat > lib.c <<EOF
#include <stdio.h>

int
foo (int a)
{
  printf ("a = %d\n", a);
  return a;
}
EOF
$cat > asm.as <<EOF
global nothing
;export nothing
nothing:
  ret
  end
EOF
$ cat > app.c <<EOF
#include <stdio.h>

extern int foo (int);

int
main ()
{
  int x = foo (42);
  printf ("x = %d\n", x);
  nothing();
  return 0;
}
EOF
$ gcc -g -c lib.c -o lib.o
$ yasm -fx64 asm.as -o asm.o
$ gcc -shared lib.o ams.o -Wl,--out-implib=lib.dll.a -Wl,--export-all-
symbols -o lib.dll
$ gcc -g -o app app.c -L. -llib
$ ./app
...
<segfault>

Without the export directive (commented above) I get __nm_ prefix and 
wrong callq instruction.
With it, the __nm_prefix disappears and the trampoline correctly used.
