Sorry that I could not answer earlier.

The very first attempt build LyX flawlessly, and then I found there are
no DLL's made but static libraries. I checked config/ltconfig and then
found to my surprise that the official GNU libtool has finally OS/2
support added in. I looked into it deeper and found that shared library
generation is diabled for OS/2 platform. So I activate it and welcomed
by bunches of "Undefined symbol referenced from text segment" message
just as I expected. I also realized in this build that linker options
are not right at all. I checked config/ltconfig again and found to my
dismay that the linker options for OS/2 are crippled, intentionally IMO.
They are obviously recommended options for emx0.8 when multithreading
support was not free from problems. I fixed obvious ones but giving
up adding -Zomf, since the corresponding code in libtool 1.2d for OS/2
is too complicated for me to understand and may require a sofisticated
treatment.
Well, attached is my attempt to make libsupport.la linkable here and
error messages I still have.

P.S. I like the ImageContainer idea.
