You should create import libraries from the DLLs and link agaist them.
See also the user guide:
http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/dll.html
I use impgen which comes from libtool:
http://anfaenger.de/cygwin/impgen/
impgen ${DLLNAME}.dll >${DLLNAME}.def
dlltool --as=as --dllname ${DLLNAME}.dll --def ${DLLNAME}.def --output-lib ${DLLNAME}.dll.a
There are also lot of information about this on http://mingw.org/
where is described to use impdef which is available here:
