Make sure you
#include <windows.h>
before #including any of 
<GL/gl.h> <GL/glu.h> or <GL/glut.h>

and compile using the -mwin32 compiler flag 

also see 
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-05/msg00257.html

If you are still having problems
you could check out how PLib works
http://plib.sourceforge.net

FYI
PLib is an OpenSource OpenGL based cross platform 
 < Unix, Windows, Mac, Irix >
"Game" Library that includes amongst other things

PUI  - Portable User Interface
FNT - Font package
SG  -  Simple Geometry
SSG - Performer inspired Simple SceneGraph

FWIW
I am part of the PLib development team and insure that it
always works 'OTB' with Cygwin

I recomend getting the current source from CVS
as there have been many improvements since the
last 'official' release.

Cheers

Norman VIne
