I don't know what the DMC policy is but I think Jan Knepper's modified version
of Implib (www.digitalmars.com/~jan/) should be folded into the regular
distribution.  The ability to append the @# (ie. @4, @8, ...) to functions is
vital if you need to use some older "system" DLL's.  A newbie might have a hard
time without this tool.  I used it to generate a .DEF file with the correct pre-
and post-pend to the names ("_" and @#), and then used the regular IMPLIB to
generate the import .LIB from the .DEF file.  Note: For some reason the
librarian listing command, "lib -l", did not work on the output.
Thanks Jan!
Just my $0.02.

Hey! Thank Walter for releasing the sources! ;-)
I did the SDK for our software development this way years ago...
Also have a regenerated UUID.lib... ;-)
