These are the same results I had back when I compiled .15 in cygwin. After about a week of hacking around the directx code - I realized that you can't properly reference an X window for directx. It references the entire x server instead - which ended up being an awful lot of trouble.
This is the exact reason I switched to compiling with mingw - which I actually have a word document I put together containing directions to get you pretty far with it, but once I achieved a full compile with lots of hacks, the ld problem with QT/mingw cropped up. Since then I have just been waiting this out instead of hacking around bin-utils or QT code.
