[f2py] Compiling/linking the Fortran source files manually

[Ben Forbes]

I'm having trouble getting f2py (from Enthought 7.0.2 64-bit) to play
nicely with my compiler (Intel Visual Fortran 11 build 067). I am
running Windows 7 64-bit. My source file is just a hello world
subroutine, and I am running "f2py -c helloworld.f90". The first
apparent errors are when ifort is called:

ifort: command line warning #10006: ignoring unknown option '/shared'
ifort: command line warning #10006: ignoring unknown option '/shared'
ifort: command line warning #10161: unrecognized source type

See '/help deprecated'

Is it possible for me to provide f2py with a pre-compiled object file
or static library? I know how to produce .obj and .lib, not sure how
to turn those into .o or .a or .so.

Thanks for your help.
