Also, reading the whole page, the section "Linking against DLLs" needs updating since GNU ld has had the ability to link directly against DLLs (automatically generating the necessary import stubs) for a number of years. Also, there are other mentions of MinGW.org on the cygwin website (e.g. https://cygwin.com/links.html) which also need updating, if that URL is no longer valid.
