Undefined symbol errors when compiling for cygwin/x64

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download & extract sources
2. ./configure --enable-frame-pointers  LIBS=-lpthread
3. make

I would expect it to compile when following the instructions in INSTALL. The 
latter says to specify --disable-shared because cygwin doesn't support weak 
symbols... which I think is not actually true any more (and weak symbols don't 
work properly with static linking). The --enable-frame-pointer is needed to 
avoid errors about missing libunwind. The LIBS=lpthread allows test cases to 
compile (otherwise they also fail because pthread functions are missing). I 
also had to change casting in maybe_threads.cc to avoid errors and warnings 
about differing size of int and pthread_key_t (which is a pointer on cygwin). 

The root of the issue seems to lurk in the black magic invoked by 
maybe_threads.cc

Using gperftools-2.1.1, 64-bit cygwin on Windows 7, gcc-4.8.3

If possible please attach your config.log.

Oops, I had a typo in the configure above. It should be:

./configure --enable-frame-pointers LDADD='-pthread'

Two attachments. First, the local changes I made to get as far as I did. 
Second, config.log, as requested.

Let me know if you need anything else, or have something I should try.

Wonder the issue was fixed? I hit the same issue with "gperftools-2.1.1, 64-bit 
cygwin on Windows 7, .gcc 4.9.2"
