As far as I know, you don't need the actual libraries themselves since you're not running the binary. So for example, just install winsup/w32api/lib*.a (or /usr/lib/w32api/lib*.a from an installed Cygwin) into your cross compiler's library search path and the link should work, assuming everything is setup right. (You of course also need a working set of headers too.) If you check the Cygwin/X web site there's a nice guide on how to build a cross toolchain for the purposes of building the XWin server (which works equally well for general cygwin cross compiling.)
