As is, the -src package will build the static lib and create the 
executables without problems.  It is probably okay -- once you've tested 
the build and checked functionality -- to call that "tcp_wrappers-7.6-1" 
as is, without worrying about DLLs yet.

Then, at your leisure, you can attempt to fixup the allow_severity 
problem, and release -2 with the DLL.
