I see Albrecht has already replied, but I'd like to re-iterate some of his 
points... 
See notes interleaved below:

Where from?
We do not distribute *any* binary blobs, only source, so the files you are 
using can not be "official" ones.

You would do far better to obtain one of our source tarballs and work with that.

Also, 1.1.4 is very, very ancient... Current is 1.3.2, which works fine with 
VC6 if that is *really* the tool chain you want to use!

Note that I strongly suggest you *not* use VC6 because it is also very, very 
ancient.

Microsoft provide much later, and better, versions of VS for free these days, 
and they are Much Better than VC6.

And the gcc-based MSYS/mingw toolchain works perfectly on every Windows variant 
I've tested it on and has a much more standards compliant and high-performing 
compiler than VC6 (currently gcc-4.7.2 I think) and is free in all the useful 
ways.

Just, you know, bin VC6 and get something decent!

Then just use that to build the fltk-1.3.2 lib from source and all the problems 
will go away!

Which seems to be telling us that the binary blobs you downloaded are not 
compatible with VC6, if I understand things correctly!
Really, you need to be building fltk from official sources - depending on some 
old binary blobs is not a good idea.

If you are having trouble building fltk from sources, then that is an issue 
that must be addressed before you can reasonably expect to use that toolchain 
to build anything else anyway!

If you must stick to VC6 (and really, just don't!) then get the fltk-1.3.2 
source and build the fltk libs using the VC6 project that is built in.

Or switch to mingw/MSYS and never look back!
