I'm trying to compile a simple expat program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <expat.h>
int main() {
XML_ParserCreate(NULL);
return 0;
}

but I get:

$ gcc -lexpat -L/lib expattest.c
/cygdrive/...:expattest.c: undefined reference to `XML_ParserCreate'

yet:

$ nm /lib/libexpat.a | grep XML_ParserCreate
00000000 T _XML_ParserCreate

So, I tried compiling expat from source via:

cd /usr/src
tar xvzf expat-1.95.5.tar.gz
./expat-1.95.5-1.sh conf
./expat-1.95.5-1.sh prep
./expat-1.95.5-1.sh build

And tried to build one of their examples (make check, the expat test suite,
relies on http://check.sf.net/ to be installed):

cd expat-1.95.5/.obj
$
gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -fexceptions -I/us
r/src/expat-1.95.5/lib -I. -lexpat -L.libs -o examples/outline.c
/usr/src/expat-1.95.5/examples/outline.c
/cygdrive/...: In function `main':
/usr/src/expat-1.95.5/examples/outline.c:60: undefined reference to
`_XML_ParserCreate'

and I *still* get the same error.

I've scanned the mailing list to no avail. What am I possibly doing wrong?
