I have the same problem. The cause is, that there's a link.exe in the
cygwin binaries (recently added), being used instead of the MSVC link.exe.

The easiest solution might be to rename this /usr/bin/link.exe to
something like /usr/bin/link.exe.old or such.

I'm very unhappy with the current solution, but even after thinking
about it didn't found another good solution.
