Thanks, switching the order of the parameters worked. Now using
gcc -o test test.c -lopengl32 -lglu32 -lglut, and it compiles and links.
However, it crashed upon startup because it cannot find the file glut.dll
and that file is not in my system so I must have missed something. Haven't
worked with cygwin/gcc/opengl before.
