Unresolved references when compling with root 2.22.04 on WinNT

Hi rooters,
I am compling a dictionary with the recent development version
2.22.04 of root on WinNT and the linker complains about
unresolved references(TBuffer::WriteVersion and TBuffer::ReadVersion).
The very same code compiles fine with
the previous release (2.21.08)! I can't figure out what the problem is.
(I made sure that only the correct version of all .dll's and .lib's are on
the compilers
search path and the /test examples complied and linked without problems...
I also checked if there are any changes in the makefile of the \test
examples but couldn't find any different
complier/linker settings compared to the predecessor version.).

The error message displayed by VC5 is:

link -DEBUG -PDB:libDbaTs.pdb /NODEFAULTLIB /INCREMENTAL:NO /RELEASE
/NOLOGO -entry:_DllMainCRTStartup@12 -dll TDbaTs.obj TDbaTsDict.obj
dbUtils.obj libDbaTs.exp C:\root/lib/*.lib D:/lipa/pcq/lib/Pcqw32.lib
msvcrt.lib oldnames.lib kernel32.lib
ws2_32.lib mswsock.lib advapi32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib comdlg32.lib
winspool.lib MSVCIRT.LIB /out:libDbaTs.dll
TDbaTsDict.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: void
__thiscall TBuffer::WriteVersion(class TClass const *)"

TDbaTsDict.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: short
__thiscall TBuffer::ReadVersion(void)" (?ReadVersion@TBuffer@@QAEFXZ)
libDbaTs.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals

Any hint on what went wrong is greatly appreciated.....

Thanks in advance,
Peter
