Yes, you're right. It's autoconf test and it perfectly passed at 64-bit MinGW and 64-bit Cygwin, but not on 32-bit Cygwin.
And I don't understand why you're say that it is related to stdcall, while wglCreateContext exposed directly without any @0 @4 etc. With --enable-stdcall-fixup ld says: undefined reference to `wglCreateContext@0'

Yes, I need to use Win32.
I want to port application that heavily POSIX-dependent, but also want to save performance as much as possible.

It would fail on 32-bit MinGW too.

No, it's not, check the implib yourself.  You have to use a proper 
declaration to link stdcall functions, and the autoconf tests don't do 
that.  You need to change the test to avoid this; exactly how depends on 
the intent of the test.

Big difference.

Maybe, maybe not.  Mixing *NIX and Win32 APIs isn't so simple.

I have some small projects that do this mixing. A determined
individual can do it. I have not done it with 'wgl'

Choose one or another.
In my experience, 32-bit apps perform worse on 64-bit host than native apps.

i686 ld couldn't resolve wglCreateContext from libopengl32.a on x86_64 system

I've done fresh install of cygwin with setup-x86.exe @ Win10 LTSB 2015 x64.

I've installed gcc-core and w32api-runtime packages.

opengl32.dll in System32 folder is 32-bit dll

With x86_64 install of cygwin ld able to find reference to wglCreateContext, with x86 - not.

$ gcc -o /tmp/conftest.exe /tmp/conftest.c -lopengl32
/tmp/ccec30zH.o:conftest.c:(.text+0xc): undefined reference to `wglCreateContext'

conftest.c:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
#endif
char wglCreateContext ();
int
main ()
{
return wglCreateContext ();
  ;
  return 0;

This looks like a snippet of an autoconf AC_CHECK_LIB (or 
AC_CHECK_FUNCTION) test.  Such tests don't work with 32-bit Win32 APIs 
-- on either Cygwin or MinGW -- because they don't take stdcall into 
account.  You'll need to modify the test to work around that.

Also, if you're using Cygwin, do you *really* want to be using Win32 
OpenGL and not X11?
