The MSVC support in libtool was submitted a couple of years ago, but never 
kept up to date, so in all probability it doesn't work.  I am loathe to spend 
?400 (the cost of MSVC++6) to find out how to fix it though :-(  As always, 
patches gratefully accepted...

Not too helpful I know.  Sorry.

I am on the verge of making a libtool-1.4 candidate release.

Cheers,
