[liblo] Linking liblo DLL fails with liblo git and a recent MinGW/binutils

[Karl S. <kar...@gm...>]

Hello,

I'm using MinGW-w64 with GCC 4.7.1 from the mingw-builds project (
http://mingw-builds.googlecode.com), and the linker complains of syntax
errors when parsing the generated DEF file. I have binutils version
2.22.90.20120727.

Microsoft's documentation states that a DEF file must begin with "LIBRARY
*.dll", and this is missing from src/liblo.def.in. It's possible that
earlier versions of binutils were a bit more lax and would handle
"malformed" DEF files.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/d91k01sh%28v=vs.80%29.aspx

By adding "LIBRARY liblo-7.dll" to the top of src/liblo.def.in, I was able
to build a liblo DLL successfully.

Perhaps liblo's libtool script needs some slight changes?

Thanks,

- Karl
