Referring to my earlier messages, and the help from Frank, who was telling:
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.
I tried to install PDCurses for my Cygwin set-up.
I think compilation of PDCurses sources was succesful. At least, after compilation, I am getting a whole list of *.o files in my installation directory, which I named PDCurses, inside my $HOME
Get this file: http://www.gnu-pascal.de/contrib/chief/win32/cygwin/pdcurses-2.6-cygwin.tar....
Change to you "/" directory, and unpack the archive. When you compile a program using the Crt unit, you should supply "-DUSE_PDCURSES" at the command line.
