[CMake] configuring cmake with cygwin

[Michael Jackson]

If you want to jack cmake a bit look in the "share/cmake-xx/Modules/ 
Platform for the windows-icl.cmake file. In there are the "default"  
values for all the link flags and such. Edit that file. Clean out your  
build directory and try again.
