#563 Incorrect linkage in makefile.vc6 when building libcurl

[Anonymous]

curl-7.15.1, Windows XP SP2, MS VS .Net 2003.
According to naming scheme, "release-ssl-dll" means
"static libcurl using openssl as dll". But
lib/Makefile.vc6 specifies dll-linkage for
"release-ssl-dll" target, so link process for curl.exe
can't find libcurl.

You have any suggeted fix/patch ?

I forwarded this report to the curl-library mailing list as
I personally know very little about the MSVC makefiles and
how they should work.
