Thanks for the help guys, I read the the FAQ and have since uninstalled
Ruby, and deleted everythin in the the c:\Cygwin directory. I decided to
start from scratch.

However, even after re-installing Cygwin, I still have the same problem as I
described previously... ld can't find -luser32. Could this be a possible bug
in the installer?

The only way I can fix this is by copying the contents of /usr/lib/w32api
into /lib and /usr/lib.
