Error with CYGWIN and latest GIT rep.

Error with CYGWIN and latest GIT rep.

[carlo.bramix]

Hello,
I'm getting these errors when compiling the very latest repository of guile with cygwin.
I temporary patched the sources just for collecting all error messages until it compiled guile.exe

Sincerely,

Carlo Bramini.

It's a known issue, see

Thanks,
