From the "long and unwieldy" readme.1st:

Compilation
-----------

GCC is a command-line compiler, which you invoke from DOS command
line.  To compile and link a single-file C program, use a command like
this:

        gcc myfile.c -o myfile.exe -lm

The -lm links in the lib/libm.a library (trig math) if needed.
