Workaround for mingw cmdline bug needed

I am working with mingw (installed by MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe) and I have the 
following problem.

When creating dll bjam uses the command line such as

g++ -g -o "foo.dll" -Wl,-h -Wl,foo.dll -shared "foo.o"

but this fails saying

c:\mingw\bin\..\lib\gcc-lib\mingw32\3.2.3\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: 
invalid hex number for PE parameter 'foo.dll'

Changing the command to

g++ -g -o "foo.dll" -Wl,-hfoo.dll -shared "foo.o"

works without error. I've already filed a bug against the mingw package but in 
the meantime it would help if I had a workaround. Could someone help me with 
that? Thanks.
