Well that at least answers the question of unresolved library dependencies, but no it doesn't look well at all. You're mixing native win32 stuff with Cygwin stuff. You're trying to load the module into a running copy of a Cygwin ruby but this module imports symbols from the other copy of ruby in in C:\ruby185\. This means it probably expects data structures of the native build, and most likely will crash or act with very unpredictable behavior when used elsewhere. In general this kind of cross-polination is never a good idea. The *right* way to do it is to either stick to the win32 build (only) or to build all the components that you want to use as Cygwin modules.
