Bob,
"-no-undefined" is one of the parameter passed to configure.
It is typical of windows system.

Currently I am using:

configure --enable-shared \
         LDFLAGS='-no-undefined -Wl,--enable-auto-import' \
         --with-perl
make
cd PerlMagick
perl Makefile.PL
make

LDFLAGS should be passed only on linking operation not on
normal compilation.

on cygwin we are using a package called cygport to allow
easy configuration, compilation and packaging of different 
software. It is similar to the Portage of Gentoo.

$cygport GraphicsMagick-1.4.020091218-1.cygport almostall

will produce the complete packages following the ".cygport" 
guidelines.
