You have a problem with your environment.  Therefore make is unable to
ld.exe.
Read my previous message on how to define $PATH.
Cygwin is a UNIX like environment.  Therefore, to use it effectively you
should have some
knowledge of UNIX.
When I use your posted Makefile, I get "missing separator" error.  I do
not get ld.exe not found error.
Missing separator error means there is a problem with your Makefile.
Cygwin follows UNIX rules
not AIX.  You can download a source code for SUN, SGI or LINUX, look
carefully on the Makefile and you
will know how to write a Makefile for a UNIX system.  That makefile will
work under Cygwin too.
