perl -pi.orig -e " s{libxml2.a }{libxml2.dll.a }gis " Makefile

Is libxml2.a a static lib ? ... or is it another import lib for a dll ?

When I try to build XML-LibXML-2.0012 against a static libxml2.a, the build fails because it expects dynamic libxml2 symbols (prefixed with '_imp__').
Either your libxml2.a is not a static lib, or you've included a hack that tells the build we're linking to a static library.

(What is that hack, btw ?)

Cheers,
Rob
