I don't build using cygwin, but the error seems to be with "#ifdef WIN32".
Cygwin builds should use the same source as UNIX, so maybe there should be a "and not cygwin" in that ifdef. I would accept a patch, as long as it doesn't break the mingw build.

If you are looking for a build that runs on Windows, I recommend using mingw or MSVC. If you really just want it to run under cygwin, then change that ifdef to be "#if 0".

what's new?
Is it still actual?
