Hi Tony,

Your advice helped.
The relevant section from my Makefile is now:

MMM=i686-w64-mingw32.static
MXE=$(HOME)/mxe/usr
MGW=$(MXE)/$(MMM)

%.dll: PATH=$(MXE)/bin:$(MGW)/bin
%.dll: CPATH=$(MXE)/include:$(MGW)/include
%.dll: CC=$(MMM)-gcc
%.dll: PKG_CONFIG=$(MMM)-pkg-config

rowise.dll: rowise.c
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $< -shared -o$@ -static `$(PKG_CONFIG) --cflags fribidi 
--libs fribidi`

An unfortunate outcome though is size:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

New size: 1707008 Jun 18 12:55 rowise.dll
Old size: 74752 Apr 15 15:48 rowise.dll

Commenting out --with-glib in the fribidi.mk and rebuilding did not
shrink my dll size. A closer examination is needed.

Thanks, Enoch.
