You've found an error in WFL386.  It fails whenever a library file is
named on the command line.

The bug happens with one of the "official" fortran sample programs, too:

        cd %watcom%\samples\fortran\win32\dll\
        wmake

ends in:

         wfl386 -q -l=nt dlltest dllsamp.lib
Error! E3033: file __wfl__.lnk: line(5): directive error near
'librarydllsamp.lib'
Error: Linker returned a bad status
Error(E42): Last command making (dlltest.exe) returned a bad status
Error(E02): Make execution terminated

The problem is clearly visible in the error message: WFL386 constructed
a line in its temporary linker script __wfl__.lnk that's supposed to read:

        library dllsamp.lib

but instead it generated

        librarydllsamp.lib

You can inspect the file by specifying the /fd option to WFL386.
Apparently this was broken by change 36036 in March 2010.  I'm preparing
a fix as I'm writing this.
