Finally had some time to look at this... And could not find any problems. When 
I try an equivalent build of a DLL is does have the extra options to 
generate the import lib. Specifically I ran this:

bjam -sTOOLS=gcc -sUNIX=unix -sJAMUNAME=cygwin -n

And got this, as a link command for the DLL:

"g++" "-Wl,--enable-auto-image-base" "-Wl,--export-all-symbols" 
"-Wl,--exclude-symbols,_bss_end__:_bss_start__:_data_end__:_da
ta_start__" 
"-Wl,--out-implib,..\..\..\..\bin\tools\tools\build\examples\lib_use\simplex.dll\gcc\debug\threading-multi\simplex.lib"
-g -shared -o 
"..\..\..\..\bin\tools\tools\build\examples\lib_use\simplex.dll\gcc\debug\threading-multi\simplex.dll" 
"..\..\..
\..\bin\tools\tools\build\examples\lib_use\simplex.dll\gcc\debug\threading-multi\simple_lib.obj"

The "UNIX" and "JAMUNAME" settings are what the bjam built for cygwin sets 
internally.
