One way I know is to wrap the .Lib in a .DLL on windows with MSVC or 
MinGW. Than use the DLL in your winelib.
On the winelib side you have to make a .SPEC file for your windows DLL.
Look in previous threads and  in winelib documentation for how to make a 
.spec file of your dll, and how to link to it.

If you use MSVC do use a .DEF file because winebuild used to have 
problems with "__declspec(export)" functions exported from DLLS. (maybe 
it was fixed I'm not really up to date)
