LINK /LIB /CONVERT mysqlclient.lib
coff2omf mysqlclient.lib

Same for yassl.lib which I had to build using VC6 since it is left out of the
MySQL5.0 distribution.

The resulting OMF libraries look ok, and libunres can understand them.

In yassl.lib I see (for example) _SSL_new in both the COFF and OMF libraries.
Correspondingly, in mysqlclient.lib I see _yaSSL_new.

But if I build a minimal mysqlclient program in D, the linker complains that
all the _yaSSL... references are missing.  The same program in VC6 with the
COFF libraries links ok.

Is this some namespace thing, and if so how do I get around it?
