First off, why would you want to do this if there are binary packages
available for Cygwin?

Is there a "configure" script? If so, did you run it first?

This is missing the libraries altogether -- no wonder it doesn't find the
functions. I'd guess the LDLIBS and LDFLAGS variables weren't defined
properly, probably due to you not having run "configure". Or, maybe, you
just need to install the OpenGL libraries before you can compile client
code...
Perhaps someone else can provide more hints.
