I don't know if this is the sources of your problem,  I never had any =
luck using
the cygwin dev tools.  I tore out a lot of my hair getting started.

Check out the README in the simpleclient/iaxcomm directory.  There are =
version
numbers referenced in there that are not current, but the only important =
one is
wxMSW needs to be ver 2.4.2 (there have been major changes in ver 2.5.x)

I just set up a new laptop last week.  From memory:

1) Install the most recent cygwin.  Do the base install *plus make*.
2) Add the cygwin path to your environment.
3) Install mingw current version.
4) Add mingw/bin to your path
5) set an env variable WXWIN=3Dc:/wxWindows-2.4.2" or wherever you =
installed it.
6) Open a cygwin shell (I don't think you can do the following in a cmd =
shell)
7) cd $WXWIN/src/msw; make install
