I have considered this but do not see it as a practical solution. I do
not think that it should be the responsibility of every developer to
make a copy of a file simply because the extension is not what libtool
likes. The .lib extension is a valid extension to Windows and it seems
more appropriate to have libtool conform to that spec under Windows
(MinGW/Cygwin in particular) as I am sure that this will occur
frequently. Thanks for the response.
Is the .lib format really the same as .a? I suspect not since .a
suggests that the format is Unix ar format.
