Howdy!

I'm using librsync in a (currently commercial, hopefully ultimately
GPL'd) backup application and server.  If I understand the license
correctly, I need to link to a dynamic library, which can be replaced
separately by users.  Firstly, is this correct?

Assuming I'm right, I need to find a way to compile a windows .dll of
the library.  I've successfully compiled a .a static library I can link
against with the mingw32 cross-compiler, but even when supplying the
source tree's ./configure script the --enable-shared --disable-static
flags, I still end up with a static .a library.
Am I missing something?  Am I going to be able to compile a dynamic
library from this source?  Has anyone else managed it?

Thanks in advance =)

Cheers!

Mike
