I don't think so as neither the guides nor the wlink.lnk file with all
system definitions for linking has an entry for Dos/4g dlls.
Here:
http://www.tenberry.com/dos4g/watcom/4gwtable.html
it shows DLLs are only possible with the $999 price tag and not with the
watcom included version 1.97.

Why can't you provide the terminal output from running wcc386 ...
and the full source code so it gets reproducable for anyone who wants to
help?
