Interesting question. In my limited (and relatively uninformed)
opinion, the answer is "no". After patching ./include/wine/port.h to
fix what I think was a bad implementation of __ASM_GLOBAL_FUNC (but
then, what do I know?) I receive an error making dsound_test.exe in
./dlls/dsound/tests. The following message is issued:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.3/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -ldxerr8
File ./dlls/libdxerr8.a exists; it is not an archive, but rather a
symlink to the real archive file in ./dlls/dxerr8 (libdxerr9.a and
libdxguid.a are defined the same way). It doesn't seem to me that this
should be an issue, but obviously it is. That's as far as I've gotten,
and given my available time and knowledge level, as far as I'm likely to
get.
Cheers,
