You also need to generate an implib on Windows, which requires an extra Windows-specific gcc option. Furthermore you would normally want your Windows shared library to be called foo-VERSION.dll versus foo.so.VERSION on Linux (and another, completely different name on AIX or HP-UX). You might also want to generate a *.def file on Windows (if you were going to use/link with any VC code). Libtool deals with this crap. It's dumb to get every packager to replicate it.
