As it happens, the import libraries created by the microsoft tools are a
bit different than those created by binutils. During a discussion of
this on the libtool list, I put together this enhancement. However, I'm
not sure if it is appropriate for binutils; after all, it isn't as if ld
can USE ms-supplied import libraries.
Comments?
