Hello Dave,

I tried to integrate Modula2 with the Cygwin GCC, but I saw no
problems with the .def files and missed also that gm2l was not
installed.

In case of libglade it works to link the DLL if I use the prefix -Wl,.
Since the link commands are libtool generated in case of libglade, it
is a libtool problem/bug to not use the correct prefix when there is a
.def file on the link command line (iff it is correct to pass it to
the linker).
