Using -mno-cygwin means you are no longer compiling a cygwin app,
but using the MingW cross-compiler bundled with cygwin, but not
fully supported on this list.  You are better off asking on the mingw
list in that case.  One thing is for certain - you cannot mix files
compiled for cygwin with files compiled with -mno-cygwin; if that
has happened, that would explain the link errors you are seeing.
