Ok... After reading some old posts, it appears that the current situation
is basially this:
if there is an import lib; then
just use the import lib
else
build impgen (Cross Kaboom 1: Mine dies at 'as'.)
run impgen (Cross Kaboom 2: impgen == target binary!)
make an import lib out of the output
fi
What we'd need is a install time compiled tool to replace impgen. (No
need to have that tool mess with the actualy import lib creation, right?)
Further, the tool should preferably be based on libbfd, instead of the
current raw digging-around-in-a-binary solution.
Is that correct?
Finally, I understand there were problems actually getting the *right*
symbols out of a DLL, using libdfb. Does anyone know if this was because
of limited libbfd/PE support, or something else?
