-> -L/usr/lib -L/usr/local/lib -lglib-2.0

You're linking against the old glib2 library, another libtool bug.
I thought that this was fixed in the latest release?  Again, which 
version of libtool are you using now?  Is it the one from the Cygwin
mirrors or do you have compiled your own version?  Charles, wasn't
that included in the 1.5 release branch?

BTW, 1.5.18 is out: http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html
