Thanks!

> What's the dependency problem with the test framework library?  

All of:
libboost_prg_exec_monitor.lib
libboost_prg_exec_monitor-mt.lib
libboost_test_exec_monitor.lib
libboost_test_exec_monitor-mt.lib
libboost_unit_test_framework.lib
libboost_unit_test_framework-mt.lib
link to external, undefined functions. While under unix, this is possible,
under windows, DLL's do not allow undefined external references. Therefore, we
can only provide static libraries for these.

Specifically, test_exec_monitor wants test_main(int, char**), prg_exec_monitor
wants cpp_main(int, char**), and unit_test_framework wants
init_unit_test_suite(int, char**).

> The static subpackage contains some leftovers from libsoup:
>  %description static
>  Static version of the MinGW Windows Libsoup library.

> The %defattr line should be:
>  %defattr(-,root,root,-)

An update for these is in progress.
