Comment (by jpflori):

 I don't agree with the point that libecl.dll.a cshould not be picked up by
 the linker.
 It is not necessary and you can directly link to cygecl.dll, that I agree
 with, but it should be possible to go through libecl.dll.a as well.
 Of course, there might be a problem with the produced libecl.dll.a, but
 using import files should not be impossible.

 Or then I don't understand how any piece of Sage can link with MPIR, MPFR
 and any other library which uses libtool and which generates as well
 import files and put them into SAGE_LOCAL/lib/ where they get picked up
 before anything else.
 And I don't think we have any piece of code which makes sure these dll.a
 files are not used.
