[Expat-discuss] Win32 Release

I don't have much experience linking on Wintel, so if I'm missing something
here, feel free to correct me. ;)

I was able to create a .lib with LIB /DEF:expat.dll, but I was still unable
to link.

Also, LINK /DUMP /EXPORTS expat.lib didn't show any exports.

On that note, any non-source distribution of a library I've downloaded has
come with a .lib (IIRC).  Whether or not it's required, I don't know.  I
expected it when I opened the archive, though.
