Thanks Alexandre. I tried to do this a while back but was having problems understanding something in the makefiles for my "make implib" rule. A fix for the import libs would be great because I have this same problem when building certain dlls under mingw and keeping the mingw win32api package and wine in sync is a big waste of time for me.
The winspool.drv issue is a lot more serious than the
in-tree execution. This one screws things up badly for
the PuTTY build system. Should we modify winebuild to
try to link with winspool.drv, and if that fails with
winspool.dll when -lwinspool is given? (or the other
way around, I don't know)
The right approach would be to implement import libraries. This is
already on my TODO list, I'll bump the priority a bit...
C:\mingw\bin\..\lib\gcc-lib\mingw32\3.2\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot f
ind -lwinspool.drv
C:\mingw\bin\dllwrap.exe: C:\mingw\bin\gcc exited with status 1
make: *** [comdlg32.dll] Error 1
