[petsc-dev] A couple of other notes from the Cygwin64 install

Also, I think we're using different build configurations, I don't produce a
libpetsc.dll (that looks suspiciously like a libpetsc.so file with the
wrong name).  You should have a:

lib/libpetsc.dll.a

and

cygpetsc.dll

The first is the "import library" for the DLL, which contains the stubs for
the actual symbols.

I'm on CYGWIN_NT-6.2 1.7.25(0.270/5/3) 2013-08-31 20:37 x86_64 Cygwin using
gcc4.8.1-3 from cygwin.
