After a little reverse engineering to verify VC's lib.exe produces .libs which reference a DLL of the same name as the .def (e.g. foo.dll) I've got this working. For reference, the syntax I'm using to build and link Atlas is gcc -mno-cygwin -shared -o ${dllname} ${defname} \ ${input_libraries} \ -Wl,--out-implib=${gcclibname} \ -Wl,--enable-auto-import \ -Wl,--no-whole-archive ${clib} LIBPATH=`cygpath -d "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\bin"` VBPATH=`cygpath -d "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin"` PATH="${PATH};${VBPATH};${LIBPATH}" lib /DEF:${defname} /MACHINE:IX86 /OUT:${msvclibname} and implicit linkage against the import library created by lib in Visual C++ is behaving correctly so far. However, I haven't yet tested this out thoroughly.
