Try out my dllhelpers package which includes both f77 examples and some
extra tools (dllwrap and enhanced dlltool) that makes creating DLLs rather
trivial.

If you're using cygwin32 b19.x, you should look at the dllinit.c in the
examples mentioned above; it uses DECLARE_CYGWIN_DLL macro which is
necessary in most cases for working DLLs.

If you're using egcs-1.1 (released just a few days ago), the correct
version of dllwrap and dlltool are included; if you're using
egcs-1.0.2, then you need to download the dllhelpers package; if you're
using the cygb19 supplied compilers and binary utilities (ie., as, ld,
etc), then all bets are off -- these are too old and too buggy for
anything ambitious.

for egcs-1.1/cygwin32:
  http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/
or,
  ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin32/egcs-1.1/

for dllhelpers:
  http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/
  http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/dllhelpers.html
or,
  ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin32/misc/

dllhelpers is a set of DLL examples in C, C++ and F77 and supplies a few
programs to help create these DLLs.

If you still have trouble, you can email me your testcase and I'll take
a look.

Mumit
