The CURL you're linking against is apparently expecting at least some 
POSIX APIs.  You won't be able to get this to link without some porting.
Perhaps CURL builds as a WIN32 version too, in which case you may be able
to switch over to that without too much pain.  Alternatively, you can 
try building this without the '-mno-cygwin' flag, although you'll link in
cygwin1.dll for sure then.  Really though, if you don't want or need any
POSIX functionality, you should just use the Mingw toolset (www.mingw.org).
