I don't know if this will help you but
to generate a library file from a DLL, first you need the def file, that can
be generated whith my IMPDEF.C (I have posted a revision of it) or use the
IMPDEF.EXE that comes whith the LCC distribuition:

  IMPDEF winspool.drv > winspool.def

Then use dlltool to generate the lib:

dlltool --dllname winspool.drv --def winspool.def --output-lib libkernel32.a -k

and that's all!
