Trying to compile geda-gaf-1.8.2 on cygwin, after a simple ./configure the
make process stops with this message:
/bin/sh ../../libtool  --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc -Wall

However it seems that the two functions are present in the library:
$ objdump -x /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.dll.a|grep -B2 -A2 g_input_stream_get_type
[  4](sec  5)(fl 0x00)(ty   0)(scl   3) (nx 0) 0x00000000 .idata$6

__head_cyggio_2_0_0_dll

Then running configure with
./configure LIBS="-lgio-2.0 /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.dll.a"
seems to solve the issue.

As a backup I also tried to compile the latest version from [1], needing
Guile 2.0 which is not available with Cygwin. This triggers the need for
bdwgc [2]. After compilation of bdwgc Guile 2.0 fails to compile but I its
not the place here to report Guile issues.
