it should not be installed at at all.
Sometime I remove such files in src_install()
or you can put them in PKG_IGNORE

proper built library for Cygwin are named cygwgetN.dll so you call the 
package libwget0

better you use in src_install() something like

        insinto /usr/share/man/man3
        doins ${S}/DOCS/man/man3/*

and then use the ..._CONTENTS so they are packed in the right position

see chapter 10 of
/usr/share/doc/cygport/html/manual/toc_index.html
