This may break Winelib apps. Did you check that MinGW does not
search . for libs?

What do you mean by this?

We need to pass .a files to gcc, otherwise Winelib apps break.
A lot of them (see wxWindows) compile as a big .a lib, and
link with that. What do you mean "won't find"? And we should 
pass .so libs to gcc as well.
