That's almost certainly a problem with the link.exe from cygwin. Recent
cygwin versions include a link.exe, which conflicts with the link.exe
from MSVC.

I've tried to change my PATH to get round this problem, but failed.

As a consequence, I've simply renamed the link.exe in cygwin and all is
well.
