Please read my -mno-cygwin howto:
http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/
for the various pitfalls in using -mno-cygwin.

The problem comes up quite often. Configure runs tests to see if
various includes/features exist. Even when using -mno-cygwin, you
still pick up Cygwin headers and features. The only solution that
really works all the time is to use -nostdinc and then specify all
the include directories manually.
I don't have time to go into the details, but this should give you
enough info to go forward. In the meantime, use my precompiled
binaries for make-3.77.
