I finally succeeded in calling gnu-win32 DLLs from Delphi2. I have enclosed
sample code. 
However if I try this method and try to use 2 DLLs they will not load. Both
win95 and Dephi2 will display invalid format error messages. Does anybody
have any clues as to what the problem is?

Note: This code will work with many fuctions in a DLL.

interface
//The following external declaration imports a function called MessageBox
from the DLL called 'user32.dll'
//(part of the Windows API): function MessageBox(HWnd: Integer; Text,
Caption: PChar Flags: Integer): Integer; stdcall;
//external 'user32.dll' name 'MessageBoxA';

function charfunct(t: integer): PChar; stdcall;

implementation

function charfunct; stdcall; external 't12.dll' name 'inadll';
