Cygwin program startup may have already taken care of the command line.

If you're using Cygwin, lose the MS cruft, and define a standard non-MS: 

int 
main( int argc, char **argv) {
...
}

and process the args with getopt as usual.
You could try Mingw or VS, but even there I believe you can use standard 
main().
