The GNU tools don't read Microsoft/Visual C object libraries. You should have
the necessary libraries in somewhere like /usr/lib/w32api. I just looked at
my build tree, I didn't specify any special libs at all and configure
located -lregex and -lwsock32 by itself. You should look at your config.log
and see what errors it hit while testing -lwsock32.
