It's not clear whether you are running in mingw/msys or cygwin (although it
appears from your other comments you are using cygwin).

I'm pretty sure that --enable-mingw doesn't set -mno-cygwin, so you have a
forced dll dependency on cygwin.dll

Not sure how you are using mingw's gcc with cygwin, as cygwin has its own
version of gcc.

Maybe adding --extra-cflags=-mno-cygwin to your configure line might save
you the additional hoops and automagically generate the libs and dlls
(-mno-cygwin tells cygwin's gcc to basically act as a mingw cross compiler
IIRC).
