So, I installed my first MinGW build (it's a shame that I didn't try
before ;)) and I fixed this build breaker with
	f129c4f766c30b174544ec234cbd72c7050a2fc1. Interestingly the .res file
is built but it is not linked to the dll, so my original question is
still valid. A gbuild expert should take a look at the problem.

Thanks,
