MinGW integration

Build as is

gcc example1.c wintoastlibc.lib -lole32 -mwindows

Build with fake implib

mv wintoastlibc.lib libwintoastlibc.dll.a
gcc example1.c -L. -lwintoastlibc -lole32 -mwindows

Build with true implib

gendef wintoastlibc.dll
dlltool.exe -d wintoastlibc.def -D wintoastlibc.dll -l libwintoastlibc.dll.a
gcc example1.c -L. -lwintoastlibc -lole32 -mwindows
