mingw/cpd problem

Hi --

With mingw/cpd, I've successfully compiled a 'libgcrypt.a'. My
next step is to create a 'libgcrypt.dll', but the instructions on
how to do so in mingw/cpd's README file are quite vague. The best
I've been able to do results in creating an EXE file instead of a
DLL (!):

mingw32 gcc -c -dll test.c
mingw32 gcc -Wl,--base-file=a.base test.o
mingw32 dlltool --as `mingw32 --get-path as` --base-file a.base \
-e exports.o test.o
mingw32 gcc test.o exports.o -o test.dll

What am I doing wrong?

P.S. The 'WkLib' package fails to compile on Debian stable (3.0r2).
Bit-rot, I guess?

Isn't there a script in the CVS to build a dll - at least partly?
sorry, I don't have the time now to look into this.

Very liklely. I try not to use this code anymore and haven't build it
for a long time.
