Well, if there are no objections, I'm still interested in trying to
address the issues laid out in my previous message.  My main concern
as a package maintainer is the ability to produce shared and static
import libraries with the Imake system.  It shouldn't be too hard to
do, seeing as how this is possible on unix utilizing different
suffixes.  I'll have a look into the Imake system over the next few
days and see what I can come up with.

Cheers,
Nicholas
