this will only work on the mozilla 1.0 branch since we moved away from 
the nmake build system (instead of makefile.win on windows, both windows 
and unix use Makefile.in).

Try adding this:

LLIBS=\
   $(DIST)\lib\xpcom.lib \
   $(LIBPLC) \
   <path-to-lib>\mylib.lib \     <------
   $(NULL)


where the line indicated above points to the library you want linked 
into your sample component.
