Cygwin 64 does not support shared library weak references as no references may be undefined in Windows DLLs. Recent gnulib versions (at least 29-31 in bison, wget, and wget2) default Cygwin to gl_cv_have_weak=yes. Bruno Haible has applied a patch (referenced below and in the attached) to gnulib threadlib.m4 serial 31, and I have applied a modified version to serial 29:

<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2021-09/msg00063.html>.
* m4/threadlib.m4 (gl_WEAK_SYMBOLS): Force a "guessing no" result on Cygwin.

The actual patch is in:
