[omniORB] Linking errors under Cygwin using omniORB 4.1.2

Hello there,

I am trying to get omniORB 4.1.2 working under Cygwin 2.573.2.2
with gcc 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125).

I have compiled flawlessly from scratch openssl 0.9.8h, doing a shared
build. The libraries have been installed in /usr/local/ssl. The only
incidence
was that I had to install cygwin's package ccrypt, since openssl asked
me for cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll. After that all worked.

When compiling omniORB I had to modify the file src/tool/dir.mk, removing
the "omkdepend" from:

ifdef UnixPlatform
SUBDIRS = omkdepend omniidl
endif

that as far as I know is not necessary in Win32. For some reason,
UnixPlatform
is detected. Then I followed these steps (being at the omniORB root
directory):

./configure --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl

This command detected my architecture i686-pc-cygwin, and the openssl
installation. Then I used:

make && make install

It compiled and installed perfectly well. The problems came when I tried to
compile a simple client application that uses ssl (which is working under
GNU
Linux and omniORB 4.1.2):

g++ -o client client.o HelloSk.o -lomniORB4 -lomnithread -lomniDynamic4
-lomnisslTP4 -Wall -L/usr/local/lib

I got the following error:

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
warning: auto-importing has been activated without --enable-auto-import
specified on the command line.
This should work unless it involves constant data structures referencing
symbols from auto-imported DLLs.Info: resolving

Any directions, or hints, would be really appreciated. I have been revising
the mailing list, and it
seems that I am not the only one with this kind of problem. Unfortunately
any solutions were
provided in the past.

Thank you
