Hey,

I am doing some work, and have hit a stumbling block. 

I have a Microsoft Visual C library -- no source code.  ;-<

The library is COFF, and I need to link it with GNU.  

The library is OS independent.  

Can anyone point me in the direction of achieving my goal.

I have started recompiling ld to include various BFD's, however nothing
is working.

Would cygnus be able to support this endeavor?

Help ?!?!?!?!?


TIA
