Subject: Seg fault in _size_of_stack_reserve__ ()

This is the latest chapter in my struggle with Windows
DLLs.

I combined the advice of Mumit Khan (use dllwrap) with
that of Paul Sokolovsky (link your static libraries
into one DLL), with the result that I can finally
build a DLL.  My thanks to both of you.

My DLL consists of two files, static link library
libntonly.a and "DLL proper" ntonly.dll.

BTW, I had to put ntonly.dll in the directory that
holds my executables.  I couldn't get either -rpath or
LD_RUN_PATH to work.  But never mind.  That's minor.

What's major is what happens when I run the program. 
I call a function, it enters a `for' loop and I die in
_size_of_stack_reserve__().  Anyone got an
explanation?

Other clues:  `nm' says that both the executable and
ntonly.dll know the above symbol, as well as a
__size_of_heap_reserve__.  Each file says the symbols
are type 'A' and they agree on their addresses.
