you didn't change the symbols to "DOS" mode, did you?

my makefile may help:

CLIBDIR         = C:\\WinBinNT\\lout\\

# Latin-1 in, ASCII out (see original makefile)
CHARIN = 1
CHAROUT = 0

# Locale, do not change under NT.
USELOC  = 0

LTFLAGS = -DFONT_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)font\" -DEVEC_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)evec\" \
        -DINCL_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)include\" -DDATA_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)data\" \
        -DHYPH_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)hyph\" -DLOCALE_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)locale\" \
        -DMAPS_DIR=\"$(CLIBDIR)maps\" \
        -DCHAR_IN=$(CHARIN) -DCHAR_OUT=$(CHAROUT) -DLOCALE_ON=$(USELOC) \
