That's because the GCC c++ abi (application binary interface) has changed 
again so the C++ libraries provided in our binary contrib package won't 
work with your version of GCC (cygwin updated their GCC recently).

The fix will be to compile libebml/libmatroska/liveMedia yourself (or 
alternatively disable them in your ./configure line with 
--disable-livedotcom --disable-mkv).
