Linking error with mingw32 g++

Why do I get:

undefined reference to `CryptAcquireContext(unsigned int**, char const*, char const*, unsigned long, unsigned long)@20'

I am using the Mingw32 compiler suite.

Some code is surely in order here. Otherwise, the only thing we can surmise is that the linker is unable to find a suitable definition of the CryptAcquireContext function (which may be due to a missing reference to the Advapi32.lib file).
