I think my Google-fu is failing me. Is there a way to produce a static library that is NOT a klib? Like if I wanted to produce a .lib file that I could link with another C method, is that possible? Or do I have to use the 'native' method to produce BC and then use clang or something to build the finished DLL?

klib is not static library in native sense, it’s way to modularize K/N. Static library (i.e. .a or .lib) generation is not yet implemented, but shall be somewhat straightforward to implement, looking at

-produce dynamic
