There's no firewall involved if a simple socket call goes wrong.
For AF_LOCAL Cygwin opens an AF_INET socket, but which is unbound
until you call bind or connect.
I tried this myself and it works for me:
$ uname -srvm
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 2.4.0(0.293/5/3) 2016-01-15 16:16 x86_64
$ cat <<EOF > sock.c
#include <sys/types.h> /* See NOTES */
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main()
{
int fd = socket (AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
if (fd < 0)
{
fprintf (stderr, "Can't create socket: %d %s", errno, strerror (errno));
return -1;
}
printf ("Success\n");
return 0;
}
EOF
$ gcc -g -o sock sock.c
$ ./sock
Success

You don't need to install the source package. When you installed the
cygwin-debuginfo file, the debug files are installed into /usr/lib/debug/
and the sources under /usr/src/debug/cygwin-2.4.0-1/
