Snappy not linking with rust

I was trying to follow the ffi example in the Rustnomicon. I cloned the snappy repository and built it. I placed the snappy library inside the targets/debug/deps/ directory. Here is the code -

use libc::size_t;

#[link(name = "snappy", kind="static")]
extern "C" {
    fn snappy_max_compressed_length(source_length: size_t) -> size_t;
}

fn main() {
    let x = unsafe { snappy_max_compressed_length(100) };
    println!("max compressed length of a 100 byte buffer: {}", x);
}

When I try to build it, it fails with this error -

LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRTD' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
