A question with an answer pays ten times. So here we go for the archives: The solution is to set the host to the appropriate value. AFAIK it is autodetected by ./configure, as long as you don't set it manually to a wrong value as I did (indirectly). The host for cygwin is i686-pc-cygwin. Once it is set right the configure excludes modules that depend on kernel stuff like user.h. A kernel is simply not part of Cygwin.
