I remember this has worked once already in the past,
(copying *.dll to lib*.a and using *.dll directly in mingw )
but maybe I'm wrong, or it just worked in some cases, 
and not in some others.

This is the second example where it doesn't work (previous 
one was mysql.dll).

[ So far it looks this is similar issue with leading 
underscore which is present with bcc, and implies using 
implib -a option. ]

Any idea how to use .dlls with mingw in a stable way 
(using mingw only tools)?
