D - dmd library question

Walter,
I'm trying to compile a test program using Pavel's GL and SDL libraries,
everything looks OK, except for a glu32.lib file, which the linker informs me is
not actually a valid library file. I figure maybe it is in COFF format, so I
tried using Borland's coff2omf utility to convert it, but no dice. Does
Borland's OMF format differ from dmd's? If not, does anybody have any ideas? I
tried converting the library to the older coff format first as suggested by
http://cmeerw.org/prog/dm/ms_sdk.html, but that didn't help either. It may just
be that the file is corrupt as well.

Thanks for any help you can give me,
-Jon

On a related note, I see now that Burton might have ran into the same problem
when working on dig, so maybe I will just take advantage of all his hard work
(which I am grateful for) and use diggl instead of the glu libs =).
