Just in case some one run into the same problem or try solving it, I
found the answer alreay.

Though the reason is unclear to me but one solution is simply to add
$ORACLE_HOME/bin to my Cygwin $PATH and create the library by doing
% dlltool -d OCI.def -D oci.dll -l libOCI.a 
instead of following the description as in the extconf.rb
% dlltool -d OCI.def -D $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oci.dll -l libOCI.a

then build the rest as usual

% ruby extconf.rb
% make
% make site-install

I'm a happy Oracle DBI user now.
