Thanks, David, but I wonder is really worth bothering to back-port to 
GCC-5.3.0?  Would it not be better to just release GCC-6.3.0, which we 
have both now built successfully[*]?

Strictly, you should patch only Makefile.am, then run autoreconf to 
regenerate Makefile.in, (along with the rest of the build system), and 
yes, that's an absolute pain in the proverbial, unless your automake is 
identically the same version as the original maintainer's; just one of 
the reasons why, despite favouring autoconf, I detest automake.

For me, that patch does no more than suppress an innocuous, and harmless 
warning about only being able to create a static libcaf_single.a; that's 
all I get anyway, with or without the patch.  Does it create a DLL, and 
accompanying libcaf_single.dll.a, for you?

[*] I think I've applied all your patches, but I still don't get any 
Ada associated DLLs built.
