We already have a solution to this problem.  Thanks!  (We basically add a
WinMain() to our library which calls main().  Doesn't work properly when the
library is built as a DLL though because Windows is shared-library
challenged apparently).

OK, I can get rid of "-lm" in the configure script for the Cygwin target.

These workarounds might work if I specify the C++ compile command
explicitely to configure.  Not as nice as it just plain working, but maybe
doable.
