[Dcmlib] Building GDCM 2.0.7 on WinXP

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Salut Pierre,

  First thing first, please try to send question related to GDCM 2.x
on the sf.net mailing list. Thanks (you should have received an
aknowlodgement of subscription by now).

  So now I understand your post on GDCM being included with ITK in
pythonxy. You meant to say GDCM 2.x, right ?

ok

not ok. Please read the FAQ:

Hum, must be one of those weird mingw thingy were you have to
explicitely export everything. Switch your build to GDCM_BUILD_SHARED
for now (can't remember the mingw magic incantation from the top of my
head right now)

VS7.1 and above are pretty good (not VS 7.0 please!)
