Actually - that looks to be a bit more difficult than I thought.

The warnings are:
Info: resolving _aerror_other by linking to __imp__aerror_other (auto-import)

And basically anything in common/errors.hpp

So I thought:
#if defined(__CYGWIN__) || defined (_WIN32)
#define DLLIMPORT __declspec(_dllimport)
#else
#define DLLIMPORT
#endif

namespace acommon {

struct ErrorInfo;

extern "C" DLLIMPORT const ErrorInfo * const aerror_other;

That would fix it (see also common/iostream.hpp and various other Cygwin 
packs).
But that results in:
common/errors.hpp:59: undefined reference to `_imp__aerror_other'

Which misses a leading underscore.
So somebody who actually understands how DLLIMPORT works, should prolly 
take a shot :)

By the way - it would be cosmetic fix, as the linker does resolve them 
correctly.
