I took a look at this.  The code in Cygwin looks fine, I think.  But
the assembly is wrong:

000000018015cd40 <lrint>:
   18015cd40:   48 83 ec 28             sub    $0x28,%rsp
   18015cd44:   f2 0f 11 44 24 08       movsd  %xmm0,0x8(%rsp)
   18015cd4a:   dd 44 24 08             fldl   0x8(%rsp)
   18015cd4e:   db 5c 24 18             fistpl 0x18(%rsp)
   18015cd52:   48 8b 44 24 18          mov    0x18(%rsp),%rax
   18015cd57:   48 83 c4 28             add    $0x28,%rsp
   18015cd5b:   c3                      retq

That last `mov` should be a `movq`.  The result in $rsp+0x18 is
correct (I checked in gdb), but the `mov` truncates it.  Not sure if
that's a gcc bug or what.

Best,
Erik
