This looks suspiciously like the kind of errors you get if the
environment is set incorrectly, that is, if you have not run
ifortvars.bat before running CMake.

(Another possibility is that there is a mixup between MinGW and
plain Windows: I have that sort of problems with another compiler
combination.)

What happens if you compile and link a small program by hand on
the DOS prompt?
