Summary:                    Compiles to obj intead of to o object files
Description: 
When compiling a library by mingw C++ (all recent versions), it produces object
files with the obj file extension instead of the expected o extension. The
problem is that the linker (ld) cannot link the resulting library because it
contains obj files, while it expects o files.
