To me, that means your program is not calling glutInit before glutCreateWindow.

Let's clarify something: the GLUT dll in Cygwin's OpenGL package does not 
use any cygwin function. It should not make your program depend on 
cygwin1.dll if _all_ your own source files are compiled with -mno-cygwin. I 
don't understand why you insist on using NVDIA's glut32.dll. Cygwin's is 
GLUT version 3.7 too; I suggest that you try to link with it to make sure 
that NVDIA's dll is not the cause of your problem.
