That's XDR.

Yep:

configure:4592: checking for xdrmem_create in -lxdr
configure:4609: gcc -o conftest.exe -g -O2    -I/c/OSGeo4W/include  -Wl,--export-dynamic,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc  -L/c/OSGeo4W/lib -L/osgeo4w/usr/src/grass-7.0.svn/mswindows/osgeo4w/lib conftest.c -lxdr -liberty -lws2_32   1>&5
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: warning: --export-dynamic is not supported for PE targets, did you mean --export-all-symbols?
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/../../../crt2.o:crt1.c:(.text+0x28): undefined reference to `__dyn_tls_init_callback'

This indicates a problem with the compiler or linker. The exact same
error occurs for every other test (except those which fail for some
other reason). The XDR check is just the first one which aborts the
configure script.

Some brief googling suggest that this is related to a version mismatch
between various components of MinGW. You might want to try
uninstalling and reinstalling MinGW, or possibly installing an older
version.
