As per Andre's suggestion, i compiled and ran the attached program. Below are the outputs under different system settings:
All programs run from tcsh inside cygwin. My LD_LIBRARY_PATH also had my current dir, because I had the nvidia glut32.dll and glut32.lib files in it (which work when compiled with visual C++ on a different machine - I tried one of their demos)
Forget about LD_LIBRARY_PATH; it is not used by cygwin.
This was the first run, just from scratch with no extra parameters.

The error messages above make it clear: you are using the wrong headers. Cygwin's OpenGL headers would have generated messages like:
$ g++ helloGlut.c -o helloGlut

Notice the @4, @8, and @0 after the names.
You said in a previous message that you downloaded headers from NVDIA's site. If you are using these, that's the source of the problem. They are incompatible with gcc and g++ because they do not specify the right calling convention.
My advice: ditch those headers and use the ones from Cygwin's OpenGL package, or the ones from Cygwin's w32api package.
Alternative: modify NVDIA's headers to specify the right calling convention by adding
__attribute__ ((__stdcall__))
to the declaration of the functions. However, if you choose that path, do not expect anymore help from me; I am not going to support people who replace headers from Cygwin packages with headers from third parties. You would have to go to NVDIA's site for support.
