I found that my Borland tlib.exe worked sometimes. It wouldn't look at
OS2386.LIB for me but did create some small libs OK.

Right now I am writing my own version of lib.exe. In doing this I have found
differences in the way public definitions are stored in a 32bit OBJ file.
This explains why tlib didn't like my OBJ files - maybe MS's lib.exe
understands them.

I expect to release my version of lib.exe within the next week or so - it's
being tested right now. The program will come with source under a GNU
license.
