I should add this as well... this is what cygwin puts out after running the
makefile:

Info: resolving Fl::e_keysym      by linking to __imp___ZN2Fl8e_keysymE
(auto-import)
Info: resolving Fl::e_state      by linking to __imp___ZN2Fl7e_stateE
(auto-import)
Info: resolving Fl::e_y      by linking to __imp___ZN2Fl3e_yE (auto-import)
Info: resolving Fl::e_x      by linking to __imp___ZN2Fl3e_xE (auto-import)
Info: resolving vtable for Fl_Menu_Barby linking to __imp___ZTV11Fl_Menu_Bar
(auto-import)
Info: resolving vtable for Fl_Gl_Windowby linking to
__imp___ZTV12Fl_Gl_Window (auto-import)
Info: resolving vtable for Fl_Double_Windowby linking to
__imp___ZTV16Fl_Double_Window (auto-import)

i have no idea what that stuff means, but thought it might be important...
