           Summary: Linking problem :  __imp_* prefix instead of _imp_*
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: P1
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mamikon_mirzoyan at instigatedesign.com


I am a SW engineer working in a project that needs to use Webkit inside of it.

I have a problem with linking libwebkit.a.  I built WebKit library in MSys
MinGW environment under Windows XP and got a libwebkit.a (hope successfully),
and now I can't build a simple application.
The following error is occurred " ... undefined reference to `_imp__xmlFree'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status" and some others like this.

In the libwebkit.a it is written "__imp__xmlFree" instead of "_imp__xmlFree",
so the difference is just an underscore.
A simple question comes up -  Is there a method to change the generated prefix
"__imp" into "_imp"?

Could you please help me to solve this problem or provide another appropriate
reference (e-mail, web-link, phone number, etc.)?

The above described is just an outline of the problem.  If you are ready to
support me, I can provide you more details (as much as you need).

I will do appreciate any help from your side.  It is really urgent and very
important for me and for my project.
