It's clearly barfing on the space in "c:\Documents and Settings".  The 
question is why it thinks it needs to be looking in that part of your 
hard disk.  You can find out by looking at the config.log for APR.  Use 
keywords from the above four lines to find the appropriate section of 
the log; it won't be super-easy to find, due to the verbosity of 
autoconf logs.

Incidentally, why can't you just use the native Windows version of 
Apache?  It'll be a lot faster than a Cygwin build, and it's fully 
supported.  I imagine this is the main reason the last Cygwin package 
for Apache is still 1.3, those being the days when the native Windows 
port of Apache was still a bit weak.
