The windows platform code is hot right now. We try to make it to work
for MinGW and Cygwin, but without breaking other arch's.
The good news is Eric just commited today some patches I sent
him for Cygwin, which I made (again) working this week.
So, a clean check out with a bootstrap, make, lot of coffee, ..
should bring you now to a successful make check under Cygwin.

Thanks for the report. We're at your service during the week-end :-)

Cheerio
