Yes can link against mingw-built (C and Fortran, *not* C++)  static libs 
with MSVC, but be careful to link against MS DLL runtime (either msvcrt.dll 
or crtdll.dll, depending on your mingw build) and not the MS static runtime 
libs.  Also may need to link against libgcc.a (in MSVC) to  resolve symbols 
that live there (like the builtin gcc functions).
