I guess it can be closed as 'wontfix'.
GLib uses separate set of makefiles that use cl.exe and other MS tools and are
able to build GLib itself and its import libraries - obviously no one is going
to take a burden to maintain such thing for GStreamer, so it's not a solution.

The best way of fixing this bug is to add a separate vcproj that would do only
one thing - generate .lib files from .def files (.lib files are only needed for
MSVS users, and it's safe to assume that these users do have MSVS to build that
vcproj).

But since i'm not THAT interested in MSVS (and since i have my handy Python
script in case i do need .lib import libraries again), i am not willing to
tinker with Visual Studio.

Ask the guy who maintains gstreamer/win32/* part of the source tree.
