glx.h is an X-windows header file.  I don't think you should need it
with Cygwin.  It sounds like something isn't being configured correctly.

Yes - that's the "official" place for the installed PLIB - all PLIB
applications are supposed to look there to find the headers.  Don't
even *THINK* of putting them anywhere else!

Your include path should include "/usr/include" - and not /usr/include/plib,
this is because PLIB application programs say:

  #include <plib/{whatever}.h>

...which is analogous to the rules for OpenGL.  Where the headers
are supposed to be referred to by <GL/gl.h> - and the files are
in places like: /usr/include/GL/gl.h
