Hi guys, I understand there's a UNIX-like environment that one can install on Windows CYGWIN?

No - for binding to C libraries you want to use MinGW / MSYS. The reason for this is basically that everyone else does. Linking static libraries is a bit different internally to Cygwin and it does not seem to "just work" whereas it usually does on MinGW provided you have the C library already working.
