This is how I use to build Emacs for Cygwin:

$ cd $sourcepath
$ ./autogen.sh
$ cd $buildpath
$ $sourcepath/configure --with-w32
$ make

Well, I've just got this error when trying to make the above build:

You know, I was /just/ writing up an email to emacs-devel about this.
I've confirmed that the problem lies in Paul's recent commit "Merge from
gnulib" sha 6c52e9b93b68795d1876718d8f3c1d57bf7f6d91. I'm not really
sure exactly what the cause is, but I believe it's something wrong with
the preprocessor logic.
