Uploaded.  Please note that it's *not* enough to install the snapshot Cygwin DLL.  The important items here are gcrt0.o and libgmon.a.

Really thanks to all. That now works.

Sorry for the slow reply, I did the install with the snapshot as suggested 
- no difference, at first, but I had been given the clues I needed.

I used find to track all libgmon.a  on my laptop :

C:/Altera/12.0sp2/quartus/bin/cygwin/lib/libgmon.a
C:/Altera/12.0sp2/quartus/bin/cygwin/lib/mingw/libgmon.a
C:/Altera/12.0sp2/quartus/bin/cygwin/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib/libgmon.a
C:/Applications/Strawberry/c/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/libgmon.a
C:/cygwin/lib/libgmon.a
C:/cygwin/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib/libgmon.a
C:/cygwin/usr/lib/libgmon.a

I blocked access to the Altera and Strawberry Cygwins, which made no difference, (no, XMOS does not use Cygwin)
But the answer was the version C:/cygwin/lib/libgmon.a
I copied the new gcrt0.o and libgmon.a into C:/cygwin/lib/
and all now works fine. I have the answer I needed.

I do thank you all,
Cheers,
