If you build a Cygwin static or shared library, it will depend on Cygwin
(not surprisingly).  If you need to build a non-Cygwin library, your best
alternative would be MinGW (see my other message), but that may involve
some porting effort on your part.

<http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#STFW>.  The first result returned by Google
for "gcc static library" gives detailed instructions on how to do that.
