Subject: cygwin license with windows apps?

Greetings,
Seeing all the postings about cygwin license, I have one
question about the licensing as it relates to using cygwin
and gcc to build a windows app.
If you use gcc in the cygwin environment to build a windows
app and link against the windows dll's (using -mnocygwin
option), does this still fall under the GPL, even though you
aren't depending on the cygwin dll?

Thank You.

-Bryan
