Dunno about the optarg business; it sounds like a DLLIMPORT is needed someplace, but maybe that is a bug in the Cygwin headers rather than our bug?
No, that's no bug, just diagnostic messages with the new linker.

I'll check how to get rid of that if you want to get rid of it without grep -v :)
But I don't think that is is easily possible to turn off these purely diagnostic messages, without cluttering the source with those __DLL_IMPORT declarations.
And I found no easy ld cmdline override solution. But I'll backcheck.
