I presume the 'ming32' is a typo.
Is the '-m64' necessary ?
What happens if you remove it from the command ?

I can't reproduce the error you get (either with or without '-m64'), though 
I'm just running mingw in the cmd.exe shell - not under Cygwin.

I think that's to be expected - objdump expects to look at a 32-bit 
executable.
I get the same error when I run objdump on a 64-bit executable.
Try:
x86_64-w64-mingw32-objdump -p ./t.exe

Cheers,
