Martin,

It took a bit of detective work to figure out what your problem is.  Let
me guess, you're getting an 'Undefined reference to WinMain@16', aren't
you?  If you are, did you look at the FAQ:
<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_4.html#SEC95>?

If I did guess correctly, please read the following in addition to the FAQ:
<http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html>.
