Your link line looks like this:

gcc -g -mwindows -lddraw -ldinput -ldsound -ldxguid -lwinmm  src/winproc.o 

The '-lwhatever' options do not precede the object files they go AFTER
the object files.  This has been mentioned here repeatedly.  It's not
a cygwin issue.  This is how gcc and ld work everywhere.

I suspect that you'll probably have lots of other problems given all of the
warnings that are in your build log but this much at least you should
fix.  I'm surprised that you couldn't find this if you actually have
looked in the email archives as you indicated.
