Hi,

I have just checked in some changes that makes the dynamic op libraries build process work very much like the dynamic PMCs one. This has two good consequences:

* Dynamic op libraries can (hopefully) now be built anywhere dynamic PMCs can. Including Win32. Yay.

* More importantly, this means the dynamic ops can be used easily by languages and projects not in the Parrot source tree, just as dynamic PMCs can.

Comments and testing very welcome (cd src/dynoplibs && make) - we don't build dynamic op libs as part of the normal build process, but maybe if they build successfully in enough places we can now. Note that dynamic op libs do not *work* on Win32 yet - I'm not sure what their status is (well, was anyway) on other platforms. That is coming soon.

Also, if there are any volunteers to write tests for dynamic op libs, that'd be good - we don't have any at present.

Have fun,

Jonathan
