Use gcc to link. libc, libsocket and libnsl are all included in
libcygwin which you don't need to propagate to the linker:
gcc -shared -o libbridge.dll \
-Wl,--out-implib=libbridge.dll.a \
-Wl,--export-all-symbols \
-Wl,--enable-auto-import \
-Wl,--whole-archive \
bridge.o nwutil.o jagsocket.o \
-Wl,--no-whole-archive \
${dependency_libs}
where ${dependency_libs} may be any libraries your library is
depending on (like -lstdc++ for C++ libraries).
-Wl,--out-implib=libbridge.dll.a results in the import library which
you can use to link your application against (with -L/path -lbridge).
