The builtin SSP implementation does unavoidably conflict with GCC's
inferior one[1], which is the cause of these build errors. When Cygwin
2.10 is released, then GCC will need to be rebuilt without the latter.
If you wish to test _FORTIFY_SOURCE with the current snapshot, then just
move /usr/lib/gcc/$arch-pc-cygwin/6.4.0/include/ssp out of the way.
Note, however, that any binaries so built will require a snapshot DLL at
runtime, and will not run on the 2.9 DLL.
