The question "Can I mix objects compiled with msvc++ and gcc?"
currently reads:

Yes, this supposedly works. The key seems to be using MS's LINK.EXE
to do the linking instead of GNU ld. There may be issues with
constructor calls for C++/Obj C.

I thought that the inability of ld to handle this was due to a bug in
the PE handling in B18, and was fixed as of B19?

Also, a clarification on the section "How can I build a relocatable
dll?"

if you do specify a --subsytem <x> flag to ld, the -e entry must come
after the subsystem flag, since the subsystem flag sets a different
default entry point.
