I see that MinGW support has been added -- nice! But say, why is shared library support disabled there? Anything missing other than a -no-undefined link flag when creating the library (which is unfortunately necessary for libtool on w32 systems)?

Yes. The main reason is MAYBE_INLINE thing which leads to multiple definitions of the same symbol (in different object files), so linker miserably fails (see the attached file for exact error message):

Sorry, I've forgotten to attach that file. -- All science is either physics or stamp collecting.
