         several things happened, but mainly a tremendous long list

    after a while, it ended with
    gpc1:  gpc exited with status 1

-  I observe that now, in the folder of my program-file, there is a 

gpc.o file, and when I use only 'uses gpc' in my program, it compiles well. So it is the crt which is causing problems.

The CRT unit needs a curses library (ncurses oder PDCurses). I suppose you haven't installed one, or there's an installation problem with it (probably one of the first errors is something like "curses.h not found" -- unfortunately GCC outputs a lot of IMHO rather useless following messages resulting from the missing file).

If you have installed curses, perhaps another Cygwin user can help you better.
