Igor,

Here's what's getting produced by make:

gcc -shared -o File.dll -Wl,--out-implib=libFile.dll.a 
-Wl,--export-all-symbols -Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--stack,8388608 
-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib/w32api 
-I/usr/include/w32api -s File.o 
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/cygwin-multi-64int/CORE/libperl.dll.a -lkernel32

I've also tried (by hand):

gcc -shared -o File.dll -Wl,--out-implib=libFile.dll.a 
-Wl,--export-all-symbols -Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--stack,8388608 -s 
File.o /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/cygwin-multi-64int/CORE/libperl.dll.a 
-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib/w32api -lkernel32 
-I/usr/include/w32api

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Charles
