Hi!
Import libraries, obtained by running implib tool over opengl32.dll and
glu32.dll, cause dmd to complain over undefined symbols. But import libraries obtained by runing implib tool over opengl32.def ( I noticed that one in dig ) and glu32.def ( written by hand,structured as that one in dig ), work fine. Why is that so?

Because some information is lost when creating a dll, information that is in the .def file.
