static vs. shared linking

[David Stacey]

I've been having difficulty building poco-1.6.0 for Cygwin for some
time. I've managed to produce a test case that shows the problem:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/119453582/Cygwin/crashtest.tar.xz

This archive contains source files that produce a very simple library.
When linked statically, the code works fine. However, when linked as a
shared DLL, the test crashes with a core dump. The behaviour is
identical on x86 and x86_64 architectures.

Have I made a stupid error in the compilation of the shared case, or is
something more interesting going on?

Dave.
