New description:

 There are two problems with the current spkg on Cygwin:
 * -lgmp should come after -lntl and -lpari, I fixed this in configure.ac
 * the executables names in tests/Makefile.am should finish with $(EXEEXT),
 fixed there as well.
 * the -no-undefined flag should also be passed to libtool so that a shared
 library gets built on Cygwin and for sage.libs.mwrank to be functional.

 All of this is fixed in the 2012-08-24 release.
 Try updated spkg at
 http://perso.telecom-paristech.fr/~flori/sage/eclib-20120824.spkg

 Moreover, to make this correctly compile on CYGWIN, presently you will
 need, for instance, to manually create in {{{SAGELOCAL/lib/}}} a symbolic
 link named {{{libpari.dll.a}}} to {{{libpari-gmp.dll}}} or use the PARI
 spkg from #13333.
