All these I've previously searched, but I can't find any ref to
OemToCharBuffA and the others - Scott Christley's gnu-win32 API headers
include protos for them, but ld reports it can't find them in the
libraries, and
grep OemTo *.a
in C:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygwin32\i386-cygwin32\lib
finds no matches (though it finds plenty for MessageBox, for example).

Any suggestions on rsolving this?

Thanks,
Regards,
Tom.
