Unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_mutex_unlock


I have compiled pthreads-win32 as a static library using VS 2008 with the
following preprocessor definitions:
    _DEBUG
    _WIN32_WCE=0x600
    UNDER_CE
    WINCE
    DEBUG
    _LIB
    ARM
    _ARM_
    _UNICODE
    UNICODE
    HAVE_CONFIG_H
    NEED_PROCESS_AFFINITY_MASK
    NEED_ERRNO
    __PTW32_RC_MSC
    __PTW32_ARCHARM
    __PTW32_STATIC_LIB


However, when I try to link it with my project I get the following linker
errors:
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_mutex_unlock
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_mutex_lock
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_self
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_cond_signal
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_join
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_create
    error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_equal
    error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_cond_timedwait
    error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_pthread_cond_broadcast

When I use `dumpbin /symbols` on the static library I see the following
symbols:
    4BE 00005CC0 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_mutex_unlock
    44D 000050B4 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_mutex_lock
    399 00004428 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_self
    2E6 0000359C SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_cond_signal
    83D 0000A110 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_join
    332 00003D50 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_create
    377 0000423C SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_equal
    32B 00003D00 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_cond_timedwait
    302 000038C0 SECT8  notype ()    External     | pthread_cond_broadcast


Why is the linker trying to resolve the functions with the prefix `__imp_`?
What do I need to do to resolve the symbols?
