GNU compiler(mingw) use suffix '.a' for static library and '.dll.a' for
import libraries.
If a xx.lib file is found in search path libtool has to process file and
to find its type(static/import). This impact performance.
Well, yes. The expensive part should only happen when we already have a
candidate library, however, so it should not happen too often. And
correctness trumps performance.
Is this perchance fixed already in the pr-msvc-support branch?
Yes. The branch will look for import libs named as Microsoft names them.
It will also generate import libs with a .lib extension.
Cheers,
