Following is with mingw but it applies to cygwin as well 

This is the command line from log for FAILing 22_locale/locale/cons/unicode.cc

  -include bits/stdc++.h ./libtestc++.a  -lm   -o ./unicode.exe    (timeout =
600)


Note that although the correct libiconv "/mingw/lib/libiconv.a" is passed to
linker, it is  passed  *before*  the objects and libraries that reference
libiconv symbols.
With PE-COFF, the order of objects really does  matter and  since the libiconv
symbols have not yet been referenced when the linker looks at the lib, the
symbols are not resolved. They are not resolved lazily as is possible in ELF
