Yes. .so's are a particular form of shared library - it sounds like the
stunnel developers have hardcoded that in their Makefile. You could look
into building a .dll by hand tuning the source, or at libtool
(sources.redhat.com/projects.html has a link) which has fairly good
cygwin support, including .dll creation.
