I'm a bit out of my depth here, as the hunk format object modules
I've linked using egcs and ld were just that - object modules, not
actual libraries.
Try specifying them on the command line as if they were object
modules. You can even use "libfoo.a" type libraries like this;
there's nothing magic about them, you don't _have_ to use the "-l"
option. Make a directory called "gg:alib" and put iff.lib in it.
Then do something like:
gcc -o foo foo.c gg:alib/iff.lib
That's the best I can do; I apologize if it doesn't work :-/
