This is caused by a mismatch of link.exe.  I had this problem when running
the configure script for Mozilla.  The solution is to place the VC\bin dir
IN FRONT OF the C:\cygwin\bin dir (modify cygwin.bat and reset the path so
that the VC++ dir is in front of the Cygwin dir).  In my case, that didn't
work for me, so the alternate solution (if my first one didn't work) is to
rename the C:\cygwin\bin\link.exe to something like glink.exe.
