This looks like you're using a more recent version of Cygwin than
we are. I didn't even know there was a new release, but I checked
the website and saw it. I'm guessing that our build process must
be incompatible with this new version.

We'll grab the new one and try to get the build fixed as soon as
we can.

Thanks for pointing this out.
