Does <http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_3.html#SEC94> help (actually, the part
about libm is out of date[*], but the missing main() still applies).  A
web search for 'cygwin "_WinMain AT 16" inurl:2004' also proved productive
(make sure you "repeat the search with the omitted results included").

If not, please read and follow the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines
outlined at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html> (pay special attention to
the part that says "attach the output of 'cygcheck -svr'").  It might also
be interesting to see the *exact* gcc/ld invocation that fails.

[*] Joshua, should this be updated?
