A search for the comctl32 library is already occurring in
cmake/modules/wingdi.cmake.  If it is found you should be
getting a cmake message "Looking for gdi32 header and library - found"
and your CMakeCache.txt should show the actual location of that library.

That library location becomes part of wingdi_LINK_FLAGS which should
be used appropriately in the rest of the build system so everything
(dynamic driver or else plplot library if dynamic drivers are not
used) and the examples link correctly.

It sounds like something is currently interfering with this process
that worked before for you so please send me a complete
bug report with all the details so that I can help you
find what the problem is.
