Can you please give the full shell command that
generated that line?  I assume it's something like
"gcc ... -o temacs ..." but would like the details.

data_start is now supposed to be defined in vm-limit.c,
on hosts where the linker does not define it for you.

Is there some significance to the leading underscore
in that diagnostic?  (Is "_" automatically prepended
to external symbols on Cygwin?)

What does config.log say, after it says
"checking for data_start"?

What is the value of HAVE_DATA_START in src/config.h?

Also, please examine the output of "gcc -E ... vm-limit.c",
where "..." contains the same flags as used for compiling
vm-limit.c, to see how data_start was declared and defined
in the preprocessor output.
