If we could make it work correctly for cygwin (libGLU), I see no problems
why not getting it work automated for cygwin and static for other platforms.
libname-def.cpp is in CVS. The automated version could use libname-def.tmp and
compile this to libname.def.
If something should (not) be exported we might use an include (exclude) list
which then goes to CVS. I think the current way of adding new exports to the
def-file manually needs to be changed.
