#375: Wrong linker option for csc on Windows/cygwin

 Reporter:  mario       |       Owner:       
     Type:  defect      |      Status:  new  
 Priority:  major       |   Milestone:  4.7.0
Component:  core tools  |     Version:  4.6.x
 Keywords:  csc linker  |  
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 The bin path is being given to the linker:

 {{{
 $ /home/mario/local/master/bin/csc hello-world.scm
 /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.3.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
 cannot find -lchicken
 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

 Error: shell command terminated with non-zero exit status 256: gcc hello-
 world.o -o hello-world -L"/home/mario/local/master/bin" -lchicken -lm
 }}}

 It works if I give the linker the right lib path:

 {{{
 $ /home/mario/local/master/bin/csc -L/home/mario/local/master/lib hello-
 world.scm

 $ ./hello-world.exe
 hello
 }}}
