To prevent a misundestanding:
I had installed bdb 4.4 (and now 4.5) under windows, 
after downloading the ".msi windows installer". So bdb
was not built under cygwin and is a pure windows thing. 
I used cygwin only as a provider of the gcc compiler. 
The switch  -mno-cygwin tells the compiler to not link to a "cygwin.dll", 
i.e. the resulting program/dll will not be a cygwin program.
The switch -mwindows instructs to link to neccessary windows 
libraries. May be -mwindows can be omitted.
