I figured out one way to stop the errors I wrote about in my
last message; I added a MessageBox call in the DllMain
function, just as Ismael Jurado did.  THEN THE DLL WORKED.

Unfortunately, I really must get rid of that MessageBox call.
The function:

  int WINAPI DllMain(HINSTANCE H, DWORD d, PVOID p) {
    /* MessageBox(NULL, "Hello from DllMain", "DLL", MB_OK); */
    return TRUE;
  }

(with the MessageBox call commented out) always leads to the
following gripes from ld:

  (d:\CYGNUS\H-I386~1\BIN\ld.exe 1304) Exception trapped!

  (d:\CYGNUS\H-I386~1\BIN\ld.exe 1304) End of stack trace (more stack frames may be present)

As soon as I uncomment the MessageBox line, everything works.

Could somebody recommend a way around this problem?
