I believe this is a known problem with libtool. The problem is that it
uses the command "file" to determine if a file is actually a DLL.
Unfortunately, for some reason mingw doesn't come with "file", so libtool
gets confused. The way I worked around this is to install cygwin, and
then set the $PATH to have the cygwin bin directory after the mingw bin
directory.
Let me know how that works. Also, make sure you are using gcc 3.4 on
mingw.
