It is not neccessary to link against libc and libm since they are the
same as libcygwin (sysmlinks) and libcygwin is linked in
automatically.  Then it depends on the order.  If libfoo1 needs a
symbol from libfoo2 the linker doesn't find it (or was it the other
way around?), try:
 gcc -o foo foomain.o -L../lib -lgsl -lg2c -lfoo2 -lfoo1
or other combinations since the order is important for the linker.
